Another Critical Medical Break-Through

 

A couple went to the hospital to have their baby delivered.

 

Upon their arrival, the doctor said that the hospital was testing an amazing

new high-tech machine that would transfer a portion of the mother's labor

pain to the baby's father. He asked if they were interested.  Both said they

were very much in favour of it.

 

The doctor set the pain transfer to 10% for starters, explaining that even

10% was probably more pain than the father had ever experienced before. But

as the labor progressed, the husband felt fine and asked the doctor to go

ahead and kick it up a notch.

 

The doctor then adjusted the machine to 20% pain transfer. The husband was

still feeling fine. The doctor then checked the husband's blood pressure and

was amazed at how well he was doing. At this point they decided to try for

50%. The husband continued to feel quite well.

 

Since the pain transfer was obviously helping the wife considerably, the

husband encouraged the doctor to transfer ALL the pain to him.

 

The wife delivered a healthy baby with virtually no pain and the husband

continued to experience no pain. She and her husband were ecstatic.

 

 

 

When they got home they found the mailman dead on the porch.
