COMIC RELIEF

After checking the test results, a surgeon speaks to a patient the day before their surgery. “I have good news and bad news,” the doctor says. “Which do you want first?”

The patient asks for the bad news first, so the surgeon continues, “This procedure is extremely risky. In fact, it has a 75 percent mortality rate.”

The patient freaks out, but asks, “So what’s the good news.”

“My last three patients died.”

Right before the procedure, the surgeon says, “Relax, Jim. It’s just a small scalpel incision. No reason to panic.”

Confused, the patient replies, “but doctor, my name isn’t Jim.”

“I know,” the doctor says. “I’m Jim.”

A doctor looks at the x-ray of a patient. “Ahh yes,” he says. “This is what I’m afraid of.”

“What’s that doctor?” the patient asks.

“Skeletons.”
