State of the NHS
« on: December 08, 2010, 09:08:09 am »
The phone rings and the lady of the house answers, "Hello."
 "Mrs. Ward, please."
 "Speaking."
 "Mrs. Ward, this is Doctor Jones at the Medical Testing Laboratory. When your doctor sent your husband’s biopsy to the lab yesterday, a biopsy from another Mr. Ward arrived as well, and we are now uncertain which one is your husband’s. Frankly the results are either bad or terrible."
 "What do you mean?" Mrs. Ward asks nervously.
 "Well, one of the specimens tested positive for Alzheimer’s and the other one tested positive for HIV. We can’t tell which is your husband’s."
 "That’s dreadful! Can’t you do the test again?" questioned Mrs. Ward.
 "Normally we can, but the NHS will only pay for these expensive tests one time."
 "Well, what am I supposed to do now?"
 "The NHS department recommend that you drop your husband off somewhere in the middle of town. If he finds his way home himself, don’t sleep with him."

As someone who has serious memory issues from a crash, I find your taste in humour quite delightful....lol. Seriously! Even if I had been put out, sure i'd have forgotten about it tomorrow!
