Sometimes the truth is more amusing than fiction.......

A man comes into the ER and yells "My wife's going to have her baby in the
cab!" The ER physician grabs his stuff, rushes out to the cab,lifts the
lady's dress, and begins to take off her underwear. Suddenly he notices that
there are several cabs, and he's in the wrong one.

*********

A nurse at the beginning of the shift places her stethoscope on an elderly
and slightly deaf female patient's anterior chest wall. "Big breaths,"
instructed the nurse. "Yes, they used to be," remorsed the patient.

*********

One day I had to be the bearer of bad news when I told a wife that her
husband had died of a massive myocardial infarct. Not more that five
minutes later, I heard her reporting to the rest of the family that he had
died of a "massive internal fart."

*********

I was performing a complete physical, including the visual acuity test I
placed the patient twenty feet from the chart and began, "Cover your right
eye with your hand." He read the 20/20 line perfectly. "Now your left."
Again, a flawless read. "Now both," I requested. There was silence.

He couldn't even read the large E on the top line. I turned and discovered
that he had done exactly what I had asked; he was standing there with both
his eyes covered. I was laughing too hard to finish the exam.

*********

A nurses' aide was helping a patient into the bathroom when the patient
exclaimed, "You're not coming in here with me. This is only a one-seater!"

*********

During a patient's two-week follow-up appointment with his cardiologist, he
informed his doctor that he was having trouble with one of his medications.
"Which one?", asked the doctor. "The patch. The nurse told me to put on a
new one every six hours and now I'm running out of places to put it!" The
doctor had him quickly undress and discovered what he hoped he wouldn't
see...Yes, the man had over fifty patches on his body! Now the instructions
include removal of the old patch before applying a new one.

*********

While acquainting myself with a new elderly patient, I asked, "How long have
you been bedridden?" After a look of complete confusion she answered, "Why,
not for about twenty years, when my husband was alive."

*********

And of course, the best is saved for last....

A nurse caring for a woman from Kentucky asked, "So how's your breakfast
this morning?"

"It's very good, except for the Kentucky Jelly. I can't seem to get used to
the taste," the patient replied.

The nurse asked to see the jelly and the woman produced a foil packet
labeled "KY Jelly."

> > >A married couple was on holiday in Pakistan. They
were touring around the marketplace looking at the goods and such, when
they passed a small sandal shop. From inside they heard a gentleman with a
Pakistani accent say, "You ... foreigners, come in! Come into my humble
shop. Not being able to resist, the couple walked in. The Pakistani man said
to them... " I have some special sandals I
think
you'd be interested in. They make you wild at sex like a great desert
camel."

The wife (being the smart woman she was) was
really interested in
buying
the sandals after what the man had claimed, but
her husband (having
the
typical male ego) felt he really didn't need them,
being the sex hero
(in his mind) that he was...

The husband asked the man... "How could sandals
