    A woman 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 day ever in the
    boutiques...

    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 woman was feeling so guilty she broke down and sobbed.
    The lady doctor then chuckled and said, "I'm just pulling your leg.

    He's dead. Show me what you bought."
