Daily Joke: Doctor Gives Bad News to a Woman
Today’s #jokeoftheday is about an older woman who was given devastating news by her doctor. Little did she know that it was for her good.
While regular check-ups are essential for better living, it can also be scary as there is a possibility of receiving bad news. But what happens when the bad news is for ones’ benefit?

A woman went to her doctor for her usual check-up when suddenly an older, more experienced doctor in the hospital saw her run out of her doctor’s office with full force.
She ran down the hall, screaming and causing a scene, and the other doctor had to approach her to calm her down. After calming her, he told her to sit and asked her what made her have an outburst.

Minutes later, the older doctor left her and angrily stormed into her doctor’s office. With a frown on his face, he asked:
“What’s the matter with you? Mrs. Terry is 63 years old, she has four grown children and seven grandchildren, and you told her she was pregnant?”
With a smug smile on her face, Mrs. Terry’s doctor remained focused on writing on his clipboard while he replied, saying, “Cured her hiccups, though, didn’t I?”
LUMBERYARD JOHN
On a fateful day, John was busy at the lumberyard, cutting through a tree with a saw when he mistakenly sliced through his fingers, cutting all ten of them. Instantly, he went to the hospital to get it treated, and the doctor asked him to hand over the severed fingers, so he’ll know what to do.

John replied, letting him know that he didn’t have the fingers. Surprised by his answer, the doctor said, “What do you mean, you haven’t got the fingers? We’ve got microsurgery and all kinds of incredible techniques.”
He continued, saying, “I could have put them back on and made you like new. Why didn’t you bring the fingers?” Knowing how much he had messed up, John came up with an excuse and answered the doctor, saying, “Well, Doc, I couldn’t pick ’em up!”
