A True Golfer

Ted was at the country club for his weekly round of golf. He
began his round with an eagle on the first hole and a birdie on the
second.
On the third hole he had just scored his first ever hole-in-one when his
cell phone rang. It was a doctor notifying him that his wife had just been
in a accident and was in critical condition and in ICU.

The man told the doctor to inform his wife where he was and that he'd be
there as soon as possible. As he hung up he realized he was leaving what
was shaping up to be his best ever round of golf.

He decided to get in a couple of more holes before heading to the
hospital. He ended up playing all eighteen, finishing his round shooting a
personal best 61, shattering the club record by five strokes and beating
his previous best game by more than 10. He was jubilant....

Then he remembered his wife. Feeling guilty he dashed to the hospital. He
saw the doctor in the corridor and asked about his wife's condition.

The doctor glared at him and shouted, "You went ahead and finished your
round of golf didn't you! I hope you're proud of yourself!"

"While you were out for the past four hours enjoying
yourself at the country club your wife has been languishing in the ICU!

It's just as well you went ahead and finished that round because it will
be more than likely your last! For the rest of her life she will require
round the clock care and you will be her care giver! She will need IV's; you
will have to change her colostomy bag every 3 hours; she will have to be spoon
fed 3 times a day and don't forget the hygiene care."

The man broke down and sobbed.
The doctor chuckled and said, "I'm just messin' with you, man. She's dead.
What'd you shoot?"
