Thanks, Barry. I didn't think too much about the cost until I retired.

My first read of the day and I am glad it started off with a smile.
A very delightful and fun read that one's aching joints are feeling just a little bit better!
Good luck in the contest and thank you for the smile.
Best wishes,
Mary

It is 4:30 a.m. in the morning, sitting alone. After reading your poem, you had me laughing. Not about your pain, but the thought you brought up. The patient's leg being wrapped almost around his neck. In the end, he is painfree with a thinner wallet. Thank you for the laugh. And great poem.

It's 4:30 here too. Slept in front of the television again. Thanks for the review. If I sleep in that chair very often, I will have to go to my chiropractor again.

Hahahahaha. What a delightful poem. I really laughed when your leg was behind your ear! I went to a chiropractor years ago and the awful sound my back made when we snapped it, I thought I was a goner. Never went back.

This is a truly funny poem Paul! I'd have to say you've exaggerated quite a bit though. ;p The result is a very funny story that I'm sure anyone would find entertaining and amusing. I hope you catch some prizes in this contest. Best wishes. MM

Thanks, Adonna. I'm six feet six inches tall. It must look funny with this little guy trying to adjust this big body.

Please allow me to say without reservation, you are one of my favorite FanStory poets. Your poem resonates with me because I used to work at a medical school that trains Osteopathic physicians. They are rather critical of chiropractors, making fun of the pain they sometimes inflict on their patients. Remembering those things made your poem even more humorous.

Thanks for the review and your kind words. I go to a chiropractor once a month and have done so for many years. I gave him a framed copy of this poem.

The school that I worked at is Western University located in downtown Pomona, California. There were many Chiropractors who enrolled as students because they wanted to be able to do all the things that regular doctors were able and licensed to do.
