A woman accompanied her husband to the doctor's office.

After
his checkup, the doctor called the wife into his office alone.

He said, "Your husband is suffering from a very severe disease,
combined with horrible stress. If you don't do the following,
your husband will surely die...

"Each morning, fix him a healthy breakfast. Be pleasant, and
make sure he is in a good mood. For lunch make him a nutritious
meal he can take to work. And for dinner, prepare an especially
nice meal for him. Don't burden him with chores, as this could
further his stress. "Don't discuss your problems with him,
it will only make his stress worse. Try to relax your husband
in the evening by being pleasant and giving him plenty of back
rubs. Encourage him to watch some type of team sporting event
on television. "And, most importantly satisfy his every whim.

If you can do this for the next 10 months to a year, I think
your husband will regain his health completely."

On the way home, the husband asked his wife, "What did the
doctor say?"

"You're going to die," she replied.
