A village doctor was awakened at 4 a. m. to make a house call. He reluctantly got dressed and braved a snowstorm. After the examination, he told the patient to send immediately for his lawyer and relatives and friends and make a will.
When he got home he told his wife what he had seen and done.
His wife asked, “Was the patient really that bad?”
The doctor said, “No, I just didn’t want to be the only idiot called out on a night like this. “
