A woman was in town on a shopping trip.
She began her day finding the most perfect shoes in the first shop and
a beautiful dress on sale in the second.
In the third shop everything had just been reduced to a fiver when her
cell phone rang.
It was a doctor notifying her that her husband had been in a
terrible accident, was in critical condition, and 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 shopping day ever.
She decided to get in a couple more shops before heading to the
hospital and ended up shopping the rest of the morning, fini****ng her
trip with a cup of coffee and a beautiful slice of coffee cake,
compliments of the last shop.
She was jubilant......then remembered her husband.
Feeling guilty, she dashed to the hospital where she saw the doctor in
charge and she asked about her husband's condition.
The doctor, a woman, glared at her and shouted, "You finished your
shopping
trip .....didn't you! I hope you're proud of yourself!
While you spent the past hours enjoying yourself, your husband has
been langui****ng in the Intensive Care Unit!
But let me tell you........it will be more than likely the last shopping
trip you ever take because for the rest of his life he will require
round the clock care.
And you'll be his care giver!
The woman, bowed down by guilt and shock, broke into loud sobs.
Patting her on the shoulder the lady doctor chuckled and said,
"I'm just pulling your leg....he's dead......what did you buy?"
