A man answered a phone call from an emergency room doctor at a hospital.
"Sir," the doctor explained, "Your wife has a serious car accident, I have bad news and good news."
The man, hesitantly asked, "What's the bad news?"
"The bad news is that your wife has paralysis on both arms and legs, and she's likely to use a respirator for the rest of her life."
"Christ, Doc, what's the good news?"
The doctor replied, "I'm just kidding, in fact he's dead ..."
