The New Alphabet

by madwife2002 Staff



Now

The Alphabet

A's for arthritis;
B's the bad back,
C's the chest pains,
Perhaps car-d-iac?


D is for dental decay and decline,
E is for eyesight, can't read that top line!
F is for fissures and fluid retention,
G is for gas which We'd rather not mention.




H .. High blood pressure--We'd rather it low;
I .. For incisions with scars you can show.
J is for joints, out of socket, won't mend,
K is for knees that crack when they bend.


L 's for libido, what happened to sex?
M is for memory, We forget what comes next.
N is neuralgia, in nerves way down low;
O is for osteo, bones that don't grow!





P for prescriptions, We have quite a few,
Just give us a pill and We'll be good as new!
Q is for queasy, is it fatal or flu?
R is for reflux, one meal turns to two.




S is for sleepless nights, counting our fears,
T is for Tinnitus; bells in our ears!
U is for urinary; troubles with flow;
V for vertigo, that's 'dizzy,' you know.




W for worry, NOW what's going 'round?
X is for X ray, and what might be found.
Y for another year We are left here behind,
Z is for zest WE still have-- in OUR minds.


We've survived all the symptoms, our body's deployed, and
We're keeping twenty-six doctors fully employed!!!

Nurse Re: The New Alphabet
I love the nursing alphabet... it was very cute indeed. It made nursing fun!! Plus, if a lay person reads it, I think it makes it easier to understand our med terms. Good job... thanks for brightening up my day!
