My hubby and I just heard this great old joke in the movie, Belfast. Super movie, by the way!
It goes something like this:
The doctor calls his patient, Tom, on the phone.
“Well, Tom,” he says, “I have good news and bad news for you.”
“Oh no,” says Tom. “… What’s the good news?”
The doc says, “You have twenty-four hours to live.”
“What?! If that’s the good news, then what’s the bad news?!”
The doc says sadly, “I’ve been trying to reach you since yesterday.”
∼∼∼
Mom, wherever you are, that joke’s for you. I can already hear you laughing… with cutie BooBoo on your lap. 💖💝💗

Funny? Yes and no. There is another similar “joke”. A man is in the hospital for a leg amputation. The surgery is performed, but then the doctor comes in and says to him”I’ve got good news and bad news”. The man is concerned obviously. “Give me the bad news first, doctor.” The doctor says we amputated the wrong leg. The patient asks”What’s the good news?” Mr. Smith in the next room would like to buy your slippers!

Black humour! There is indeed a place for it. If not here, where?! 😅
