A wife was in town on a shopping trip. She began her day finding the
 most perfect shoes in the first shop and a beautiful dress on sale in
 the second. In the third, everything had just been reduced by 50 percent
 when her mobile phone rang. It was a female doctor notifying her that
 her husband had just been in a terrible car accident and was in critical
 condition and in the ICU. The woman told the doctor to inform her
 husband where she was and that she'd be there as soon as possible. As
 she hung up she realized she was leaving what was shaping up to be her
 best shopping day ever. She decided to get in a couple of more shops
 before heading to the hospital.
 
She ended up shopping the rest of the morning, finishing her trip with a
 cup of coffee and a beautiful chocolate cake slice, compliments of the
 last shop. She was jubilant. Then she remembered her husband. Feeling
 guilty, she dashed to the hospital. She saw the doctor in the corridor
 and asked about her husband's condition.
 
The lady doctor glared at her and shouted, "You went ahead and finished
 your shopping trip, didn't you! I hope you're proud of yourself! While
 you were out for the past four hours enjoying yourself in town, your
 husband has been languishing in the Intensive Care Unit! It's just as
 well you went ahead and finished, because it will more than likely be
 the last shopping trip you ever take! For the rest of his life he will
 require round-the-clock care. And he will now be your career!"  
The lady doctor then chuckled and said, "I'm just pulling your leg. He's
dead. Show me what you bought! "
