A man goes into…

A man goes into the hospital for some tests. The medical staff knock him out, and when he comes around there is a doctor peering over him, you know pulling up the eyelid and wielding the reflex hammer. The doctor says, “Ah, I’m glad you’re awake. I’m afraid I have some mixed news.” The man says “Don’t hold back Doc, tell me the bad news first.” The doctor says “It was worse than we thought we had to amputate your left leg.” The man then asks “What’s the good news?” The doctor replies, “The man in the next bed wants to buy your slippers.”
