Proud young Mum has her first baby and after the delivery awaits the Doctors first report on Bubs!
He says "Mary, we have one small problem but otherwise he is fine"
"Please Doctor tell me the worst. I am strong and will love him no matter what"
Doc says "He doesn't have any legs"
"OMG" says Mum. "..but thats OK, I will look after him and help him to walk in life. Is that all?"
"No" he says softly, "the poor little chap has no arms either"
"Oh no" Mum cries "But Doctor, it doesn't matter, I have so much love for him that it will see him through the hard times ahead"
The doc is obviously still shaken and adds "But the worst is still to come. Baby has no trunk. In fact there is just a single head!!!!"
"Oh dear God above" shrieks Mum "why oh why did it happen to my poor baby? But Doctor, I know we can get through this together. My love for him is so strong, nothing will stop me looking after him"
"That is truly admirable Mary" says the Doc, "I feel sure I can now tell you the second worst part in the confidence you can cope with it"
"What" shrieks Mary, "what the hell else could be wrong with my precious child? No arms, no legs, no body, just a head on the pillow!!"
"Mary, I want you to be very brave for I have to tell you that in fact you have given birth to just one ear! Thats it, nothing else"
"Oh cruel world, thjis is not possible" she sobs "what has my baby done to deserve only being an ear. My love alone will help him through what is going to be a sad and miserable life. Nothing else matters!"
Doctor says "Ah Mary, you are the brave one that is for sure. Now I can tell you the last wee problem we have with baby ear"
"No! No! No! How can life be so cruel. What is it now"
"Ah Mary, the poor wee chap is deaf!"
