Once upon a time in the suburbs not too far away, there lived a very nice family. There was a nice man who was married to a very nice wife, and they had a nice little boy and a nice little girl. They lived in a nice home and drove nice cars that had a nice picket fence. The nice family was very busy so they would eat out often or quickly fix meals from nice boxes at home. When not too busy, family enjoyed relaxing with their TV and other comforts of their nice home. They often found exercising and doing activities together just didn't seem to happen much.
After a visit to the family doctor the nice man learned that he had developed elevated blood pressure and cholesterol levels. As a result, he began taking medications to manage these. Unfortunately the side effects of the cholesterol medication caused him to have pain in his legs. So he started a new medication to manage those symptoms. Unfortunately the blood pressure medication affected performance in other areas. So he started a new medication to manage those symptoms
The nice woman began taking a medication for anxiety because of the high stress of her job. So she started a new medication to manage those symptoms. She would become so anxious that it would cause her to have digestive disorders. So she started a new medication to manage those symptoms. Often she had problems sleeping. So she started a new medication to manage those symptoms.
After eating her bowl of Sugar Wow's cereal and milk the nice little girl found it hard to focus in school all the time. So she started a new medication to manage those symptoms. After eating his bowl of Sugar Wow's cereal and milk, the nice little boy developed a rash. So he started a new medication to manage those symptoms. Every time he had more dairy he would complain about his tummy hurting. So he started a new medication to manage those symptoms. Both children seemed to get headaches from eating dairy. So they started a new medication to manage those symptoms.
The nice little family didn’t make changes to prevent the problems. Instead they took more medications and turned into zombies and died.
Yes, first they were zombies, and then they died, not the other way around as some might think.
