A male patient is lying in bed at a hospital with an oxygen mask over his face and still heavily sedated from more than four hours of operation. A young female nurse appears to sponge his hands and feet.
Patient: “Nurse” (he feebly mumbles from behind the mask) “are my testicles black?”
Embarrassed young nurse: “I don’t know, I’m only here to washyour hands and feet.”
Patient (struggles again to ask): “Nurse, Please, Are my testicles black?”
Finally, she removes his covers, lifts his gown, takes a close look and says: “There is nothing wrong with them!”
Patient (slowly after removing his oxygen mask): “That was very nice but listen very, closely – ARE…MY…TEST…RES ­ULTS…BACK?”
