When we’re lying in a hospital bed, we’re not usually at our best, no matter what we’re hospitalized for. In fact, we’re usually at our worst, and we have to rely on the trained professionals who are there to make sure we’re OK and to provide us with excellent care. Nurses and doctors go to school for a long time and they’re known to be very dedicated to what they do for a living. On top of all that, when you work in a hospital, there’s not much you’ve not seen. I worked as a nurse’s aide at a small country hospital when I was in high school and even I saw a lot. So when a patient makes an unusual request, nurses and doctors aren’t usually surprised. However, in the joke below, you’ll see one nurse who just kinda went with the flow. Enjoy this hilarious joke!
A male patient is lying in bed in the hospital, wearing an oxygen mask over his mouth and nose. A young student nurse appears and gives him a partial sponge bath.
“Nurse,”‘ he mumbles from behind the mask, “are my testicles black?”
Embarrassed, the young nurse replies, “I don’t know, Sir. I’m only here to wash your upper body and feet.”
He struggles to ask again, “Nurse, please check for me. Are my testicles black?”
Concerned that he might elevate his blood pressure and heart rate from worrying about his testicles, she overcomes her embarrassment and pulls back the covers.
She raises his gown, holds his manhood in one hand and his testicles in the other.
She looks very closely and says, “There’s nothing wrong with them, Sir. They look fine.”
The man slowly pulls off his oxygen mask, smiles at her, and says very slowly, “Thank you very much. That was wonderful. Now listen very, very closely:
Are – my – test – results – back?”
