A male patient is lying in bed in the hospital,
wearing an oxygen mask over his mouth and nose.
A young, student nurse appears to give him a partial
sponge bath. 'Nurse', he mumbles, from behind the
mask. 'Are my testicles black?'
Embarrassed, the young nurse replies, 'I don't know,
Sir. I'm only here to wash your upper body and
feet. 'He struggles to ask again, 'Nurse, please
check. Are my testicles black?'
Concerned that he may elevate his blood pressure and
heart rate from worry about his testicles, she
overcomes her embarrassment and pulls back the
covers. She raises his gown, holds his manhood in one
hand and his testicles in the other. Then, she takes a close look and says, There's nothing wrong with them, Sir!'
The man pulls off his oxygen mask, smiles at her and
says very slowly, 'Thank you very much. That was
wonderful, but, listen very, very closely......
'A r e - m y - t e s t - r e s u l t s - b a c k?'
