MEDICARE COVERAGE IN A
NUTSHELL
The phone rings and the lady of the house
answers,
'Hello.' 'Mrs. Sanders, please.'
'Speaking.'
'Mrs. Sanders, this is Doctor Jones
at Saint Agnes
Laboratory. When your husband's doctor sent his biopsy
to
the lab last week, a biopsy from another Mr.
Sanders arrived as well. We are
now uncertain which
one belongs to your husband. Frankly, either way
the
results are not too good.'
'What do you mean?' Mrs. Sanders asks
nervously.
'Well, one of the specimens tested
positive for
Alzheimer's and the other one tested positive for HIV.
We
can't tell which is which.'
'That's dreadful! Can you do the test
again?'
questioned Mrs. Sanders.
'Normally we can, but Medicare will
only pay for these
expensive tests one time.'
'Well, what am I supposed to do
now?'
'The folks at
Medicare recommend that you drop your
husband off somewhere in the middle of
town. If he
finds his way home, don't sleep with him.'

Hello! Isn't the Metroplex great? I was born and raised in Dallas and parents moved me to "the country" (Mesquite) in the 70's. Mesquite was far enough from Dallas to be the country but close enough to be convenient. I have seen this small town turn into a big city that continues to have small town charm. To experience a taste of this charm come on out in the Spring and enjoy the street festival and Rodeo Parade celebrating the opening of the Rodeo season, grab some tickets to the Rodeo and see first hand what the fuss is all about, stop in at Mesquite BBQ on any Friday or Saturday night or just cool your heels on the town square and enjoy the sounds of the Mesquite Opry and the occasional lazy train rolling through town. The spirit of the Mesquite High School Football games will take you back to a special place in your life, the sound of the bands, the trips to the snack bar, the sense of community coming together- nothing else like it! People still know their neighbors in Mesquite, watch out for one another in Mesquite, and proudly support our troops, police & fire departments, who not only serve and protect our community, but are also our friends and neighbors. Mesquite is the place for me!
