A newlywed couple was in a car accident. The husband gets some scratches, but the wife is airlifted to an ER with multiple life-threatening injuries.

After a six-hour surgery, the doctor comes out to update the husband.

"Doctor, is she gonna survive?"

"She's in a coma. Brace yourself: you'll have to tube-feed her, wash her with a sponge, change her diapers, and shift her body to prevent bed sores every three hours. And still, she may never come out of the coma."

After a pause, the doctor says to the shell-shocked husband, "Scary, right? I was just kidding: She died."
