Aunt Mildred
Aging Aunt Mildred was a 93-year-old woman who
was particularly despondent over the recent death
of her husband. She decided that she would just
kill herself and join him in death.
Thinking that it would be best to get it over with
quickly, she took out his old Army pistol and made
the decision to shoot herself in the heart, since
it was badly broken in the first place.
Not wanting to miss the vital organ and become a
vegetable and a burden to someone, she called her
doctor’s office to inquire as to just exactly where
the heart would be on a woman. The doctor said, ‘Your
heart would be just below your left breast’
Later that night……… Mildred was admitted to
the hospital with a gunshot wound to her knee.
