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! 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 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."
