A married couple went to the hospital to have their baby
delivered.
Upon their arrival, the doctor said he had invented a new
machine that would transfer a portion of the mothers pain to
the baby’s father. He asked if they were willing to try it out. they
were both very much in favor of it.
The doctor set the pain transfer to 10%, for starters, explaning
that even 10% was probably more pain the father had ever
experienced before. However, 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 still feeling fine. The doctor checked the husbands
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 out the wife
considerably, the husband encouraged the doctor to transfer
ALL the pain to him.
The wife delivered a healthy baby boy with virtually no pain.
She and her husband were ecstatic. When they got home, the
mail man was dead on the porch.
