A touching story (I don't normally do these)​

A small boy named Hameed lived in a village in Morocco.
None of his classmates liked him because of his stupidity, especially his teacher, who was always yelling at him "You are driving me crazy, Hameed!!!!!"
One day Hameed's mother came into school to check on how he was doing. The teacher told his mother honestly, that her son was simply a disaster, getting very low marks, and even she had never seen such a dumb boy in her entire teaching career. The mother was shocked at the feedback and withdrew her son from the school and even moved to another town.
25 years later, the teacher was diagnosed with an incurable cardio disease. All the doctors strongly advised her to have an open heart operation, which only one surgeon could perform. Left with no other options, the teacher decided to have the operation, which was successful.
When she opened her eyes after the surgery, she saw a handsome doctor smiling down at her. She wanted to thank him, but could not talk. Her face started to turn blue, she raised her hand, trying to tell him something, but instead, died.
The doctor was shocked and spun around to see our friend, Hameed the cleaner, who had unplugged the oxygen equipment so that he could plug in his Hoover.
Please don't tell me you thought for a moment that Hameed had become a surgeon?

No, of course it wasn't. It's not everyone's cup of tea. It was really aimed at a selective audience..... those with a sense of humour.

The joke is on the creator of all those weird tales of people in circumstances saving other people ad infinitum. The internet is full of them, all purporting to be true... the joke is on them.. and it's funny in it's irony.
