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 the skin from her
body, so the husband offered to donate some of his own skin.
However, the only skin on his body that the doctor found suitable would
have to come from his rear end.
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! All her
friends and relatives just
went on and on about her youthful beauty!
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 everyth
ing 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.“
