 Mildred's Heart
Mildred was getting on in years and was particularly
despondent over the recent death of her husband, Earl.
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 Earl's old Army pistol and made the decision
to shoot herself in the heart since it was so badly
broken in the first place.
She didn't want to miss the vital organ or become
a vegetable and a burden to someone, she called her doctor's
office to inquire as to exactly where the heart is located.
"On a woman," the doctor said, "the heart is located just
below the left breast."
Later that night, Mildred was admitted to the hospital
with a gunshot wound to her knee!
