Transplant
A man woke up in a hospital room. He didn’t know how he got there, but one leg was in a cast and he had some bandages. He felt weak and disoriented. A nurse came in. “Oh, Mr. Thomas, you’re awake. You have been in a coma for three weeks. You were in a terrible traffic accident. How are you feeling?”
“I hurt all over and feel weak, but otherwise I’m OK.” “I will have the doctor come in to see you.”
Later, the doctor came in and examined him. “Well, you had quite an ordeal, but you are on the mend. We had to keep you in a coma for your head injury to heal, and you are doing fine. There is one thing, though. Your penis was severed in the car crash and the crew onsite was unable to find it.”
The man looked down, nothing but a bandage with a tube coming out and his testicles. “Oh, No! Is this permanent?”
“Well, yes but there is a new transplant procedure that is very successful. Insurance won’t pay, and the charge for the transplant is five thousand dollars per inch.”
“I have fifty thousand in savings. When can we do this?” “You need to talk it over with your wife. This is a major step and both of you need to sign off on it.” “She will be in later. We can let you know tomorrow.”
Next day the doctor came in. “What have you decided?”
“We are going to remodel the kitchen.”
