Not so long ago, I thought that my life was pretty over. I mean, I knew that I wouldn’t die, it’s just that I didn’t have much to do. I was retired, my wife and I already travelled the world and did everything we wanted. The thing that brought me down was the thought of not having grandkids. I have a son, who after quite some time, announced that he was gay. At the time, I have to say that I wasn’t exactly thrilled about it, not because I have something against gay people, but because I thought he would never have a kid of his own, which meant that I would never have a grandkid. In my opinion, you live for your kids and you try to stick around as much as you can because you want to see your grandkids as well.
So when my son told us that he was gay, I thought that I would never have grandkids and that changed everything. I decided that I would live my life carelessly. I didn’t want to do anything crazy, I was simply sick and tired of paying attention to what I ate. I decided to start enjoy my meals as much as I could and I never cared about the health of a meal as long as it was delicious.
As a result, I gained weight quite quickly and as a result, the levels of my cholesterol went wild. This meant that I was in risk of suffering from a heart attack and stroke and who knows what else, but to tell you the truth, I didn’t care that much. There was no reason to stick around and I wasn’t that afraid of dying. I ignored the doctor’s recommendation.
However, when my son came home with a baby girl one day that he and his partner adopted, I was shocked. I didn’t know that they could do that and I was suddenly a grandpa, something that I had always dreamed of. Right at that moment, I started thinking about that baby girl and how I would like to be able to watch her grow up.
I immediately started eating better, but since that did not really work out, I had to start taking a medication and the doctor told me that I had to use Lipitor. With Lipitor, my cholesterol levels got a lot better and I knew that I was doing the right thing. I knew that with this, I had a better chance of staying healthy as long as possible.
I spend a lot of time with my granddaughter and I hope that I will be able to stick around for a long time. With Lipitor that takes such good care of my cholesterol levels, I know that I have a good chance.
