Excerpt from Grandpa Went to Calgary in His Long-Johns by Chris K. Willman:

“The nurses at the hospital were excited to see Grandpa. The doctors were excited to see Grandpa. They were all very concerned about his health.

And suddenly Grandpa was lying on an examination table. His cowboy boots were on the floor and his favorite jeans were beside
them.

His jacket and shirt and his best vest were tossed on a chair near the door. His favorite hat stayed on his head because his head wasn’t sore, only his chest was.

His socks stayed on his feet because no one likes cold toes.”
