How Could I Ever Repay You?
A married couple was in a terrible accident where the
woman's face was severely burned.
The doctor told the husband that they couldn't graft
any skin from her body because she was too skinny. So
the husband offered to donate some of his own skin.
However, the only skin on his body that the doctor
felt was suitable would have to come from his
buttocks. The husband and wife agreed that they would
tell no one about where the skin came from, and
requested that the doctor also honor their secret.
After all, this was a very delicate matter.
After the surgery was completed, everyone was
astounded at the woman's new beauty. She looked more
beautiful than she ever had before! One day,she was
alone with her husband, and she was overcome with
emotion at his sacrifice. She said, "Dear, I just want
to thank you for everything you did for me. There is
no way I could ever repay you."
"My darling," he replied, "think nothing of it. I get
all the thanks I need every time I see your mother
kiss you on the cheek."
