A man suffered a serious heart attack while shopping.
The store clerks called 911 when they saw him collapse to the floor
The paramedics rushed the man to the nearest hospital where he had
emergency open heart bypass surgery...
He awakened from the surgery to find himself in the care of nuns at
the Catholic Hospital. A nun was seated next to his bed holding a
clipboard loaded with several forms, and a pen. She asked him how he was going
to pay for his treatment.
"Do you have health insurance?" she asked
He replied in a raspy voice, "No health insurance"
The nun asked, "Do you have money in the bank?"
He replied, "No money in the bank"
Do you have a relative who could help you with the payments?" asked
the irritated nun
He said, "I only have a spinster sister, and she is a nun"
The nun became agitated and announced loudly, "Nuns are not spinsters!
Nuns are married to God"
The patient replied, "Perfect - Send the bill to my brother-in-law"
