Gunshot Wound

Aging Edna was a 83 year old woman who was particularly despondent over the recent death of her husband Buddy. 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 Buddy's old army pistol and made the decision to shoot herself in the heart since it was so badly broken in the first place.

Not wanting to miss the vital organ and become a vegetable and be 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, "the heart would be just below the left breast."

Later that night, Edna was admitted to the hospital with a gunshot wound to her knee.
