My Son

A lady was severely injured and Her husband was dead in a road accident. Ambulance rushed to bring her, Today was Sunday, staffs were in shortage. One senior and junior doctor was on duty, Before further action, x-ray has been developed, Patient was brought to operation theatre, Doctor straight away started recovery. After a week she came to speak, She thanks God and also to staff, And praised a doctor, who spent eight hours, On a long operation without delay. When doctor came on call, She reckoned that doctor is his son, Fifteen years ago when she flew away, He was studying in second year. Doctor was also astonished, what dad said, He lost her when a heavy tide came up, And he was unable to swim to search her, But dad also was dead last year. You are my son, she said to him, As I remember your son was also dead, Fifteen years ago I saw his stretcher, Nurse,’ Gave him an injection’ and went off.
