A man goes to the doctor for a check up. After the exam, the doctor tells him, “I have some bad news: You only have have about two weeks left to live.”

The man is shocked and asks the doctor, “Is there anything I can do to make the time that I have left more tolerable?”

The doctor replies, “There is one thing that you could do.”

“Just name it — I’ll do whatever it is,” the man replies.

The doctor advises the man to take mud baths at least two or three times each day.

The man asks, “Will that help my condition?”

The doctor answers, “No, but it will get you used to the dirt.”
