An old cowboy in west Texas was out working fences. He cut his leg on the barbed wire, but just toughed it out. Days later the pain was so great, that we rode into town to a small community hospital ER. The doctor on call examined the leg a said to the Cowboy, "You waited way too late to have this checked, Gangrene has set in! We will have to remove the leg!"
Hours later in the recovery room the doctor again attends the cowboy and says, "Well I have good news and bad news."
The Cowboy says, "I'm tough. Give me the Bad news first!"
The Doctor say, "Well, as you know, this place is not to Mayo Clinic. We took off the wrong leg!"
"Then what is the good news?"
"We think we can save the other leg!"
