“What’s the food like?”

“Terrific, wonderful menus.”

“And the nursing?”

“Just couldn’t be better. These young nurses really take care of you.”

“What about sleeping? Do you sleep OK?”

“No problem at all — nine hours solid every night. At 10 o’clock they bring me a cup of hot chocolate and a Viagra tablet … and that’s it. I go out like a light.”

The grandson is puzzled and a little alarmed by this, so rushes off to question the Sister in charge.

“What are you people doing,” he says, “I’m told you’re giving a 95-year-old Viagra on a daily basis. Surely, that can’t be true?”
