THE ACCIDENT
The face of a married woman was burned terribly in an accident. Unfortunately, doctors could not graft skin from her body because she was too thin. So her husband volunteered to donate skin for the operation.
Upon examining the husband, the doctors concluded the only skin suitable for the procedure needed to come from his buttocks.
The husband and wife agreed to tell no one where the skin came from, and requested the doctors honor their secret. The doctors agreed. After the surgery, everyone was astounded at the woman's new beauty.
One day, the wife was overcome with emotion at her husband's sacrifice. "Dear, I just want to thank you again," she said, "for everything. I just wish there was a way I could repay you."
"Please don't worry about it, dear," he said. "I get all the thanks I need whenever I see your mother kiss you on the cheek."
