Message: Woman on a shopping trip
A woman was in town on a shopping trip. She began her day by
finding the most perfect shoes in the first shop and a beautiful
dress on sale slashed by 75 percent in the second. In the third,
everything had just been reduced by 50 percent when her mobile phone
rang.
It was a female doctor notifying her that her husband had just
been in a terrible car accident and was in critical condition in the
ICU.
The woman told the doctor to inform her husband where she was and
that she'd be there as soon as possible. As she hung up she realized
she was leaving what was shaping up to be her best day ever in the
boutiques.
She decided to get in a couple more shops before heading to the
hospital. She ended up shopping the rest of the morning, finishing
her trip with a cup of coffee and a beautiful chocolate cake slice,
compliments of the last shop. She was jubilant.
Then she remembered her husband. Feeling guilty, she dashed to
the hospital.
She saw the woman doctor in the corridor and asked about her
husband's condition. The doctor glared at her and shouted, "You went
ahead and finished your shopping trip, didn't you! I hope you're
proud of yourself! While you were out for the past four hours
enjoying yourself in town, your husband has been languishing in pain
in the Intensive Care Unit! It's just as well you went ahead and
finished, because it will more than likely be the last shopping trip
you'll ever take! For the rest of his life he will require
round-the-clock care. And he will now be your career!"
The woman, overcome with guilt, broke down and sobbed.
The woman doctor chuckled and said, "I'm just messing with you.
He's dead. Show me what you bought."
