Our office has a doctor assigned to take care of our medical needs and expenses.
This benefit is not extended to our children or wives. So, whenever my wife gets unwell, just to save on expenditure, I pretend that her symptoms are mine and get everything covered by the doctor for free.
Ten or maybe twelve days of treatment went by when the doctor told me that after much contemplation he had come to the conclusion that I was pregnant ... yet, he said, I don't need to worry because pregnancy of ten to fifteen days can be easily gotten rid of.
Merrily I went back home and thought that now that my wife is pregnant, I would soon become a father. Then, exactly after eight months, when instead of my wife I gave birth to a most beautiful boy, the office doctor said that “It would have been better if you had gotten rid of this pregnancy”.
