laughter is good medicine

this pleasant middle-aged gentleman was in OT to have surgery on his amputated leg which had developed an abscess.

me : uncle, your father had a sense of humour when he named you

patient (with a smile) : yes, but what's the use? with 1 leg, i can't even walk, so, how to fly?

looks like a sense of humour runs in his family. his name?

I don't want to sound mean, but LOL
I hope his prosthetic leg will let him jog if not fly.

Iml,

actually, he doesn't have a prosthetic, so he uses crutches.

Jems,

no, but he did wear a wide grin on his face!
