A man goes to the doctor and gets a checkup.The doctor finishes the exam and tells the man,“I have some bad news,you only have about two weeks left to live.
The man is shocked. He asks the doctor,“Is there anything that I could do to make the time that I have left more tolerable?”The doctor thinks for a moment.“There is one thing that you could do”.
“Just name it.I’ll do whatever it is.”He tells the man to take a lot of mud baths,twice or three times a day.
The man looks at his doctor and asks,“Will that help my condition?”The doctor says,“No, but it will get you used to the dirt.”
