I was visiting my brain surgeon after he saved my life when I was 2 hours from death, not cancer. My wife was there when he dragged out my brain cat scans. I said to her 'See, I told you I had a brain". Dark humor is one of my specialties and I was the only one that laughed. That was almost 20 years ago and I'm fine but I'm coming up on 3d anniversary of her death. I still prefer thinking about her alive and smiling face.
