A stent! A stent!*

My kingdom for a stent!

It's my intent to live much longer,

A stent will make my heart much stronger.

A stent! A stent!

My kingdom for a stent!!

Poor Hippocrates

Doth cry,

"Your cholesterol is too high!"

Take this little yellow pill,

Or eggs is eggs

You will be ill!

This orange one

Will thin your blood

Which for your heart

Will be quite good.

Ten pills a day is not so bad,

When I forget I get quite mad.

The diabetes is

The worst,

Though to be fair,

I got it first.

But my best friend, the NHS

Is in the most appalling mess. ( If you listen to the politicians)

A/N * a stent is a device inserted into the arteries to support the walls when they begin narrowing and restricting bloodflow. (I have four of them because they were on special offer and I can't resist a bargain!)
