I’m not sure Emma quite understands the concept of getting old, but here’s what she has to say on how not to get old, or die.

“When you get old, you die. But you have to take medicine so you’re not old. That’s the only way. You’ll have to take medicine when you’re old so you don’t die. And then you won’t be old either.”

Tell me about the medicine.

“You have to have a fruit kind. And you have to drink it. You can get it at Wal-Mart. When you drink it, then you have  to stop drinking it when you don’t feel old then. You have to try to drink medicine really fast before you die when you’re old.”

How much does it cost? How does it work?

“Probably like three dollars. You have to get just a teeny bit and pour the medicine in and then you drink it.”

So how come people still die?

“They die because they have other things that the medicine doesn’t work on. Like some people are already died when they try to get up. And they’re somewhere else so they can’t get up and get their medicine. When they try to get up, their bodies pump back down.”

Is there anything else we should be doing?

“You should go to the doctor. And lay down on the bed. Go like 3 or 4 times. Try to not be so sick and try and not get sick when you’re old.”

And finally, what do you think about the new healthcare bill?

“That’s pretty funny!”
