The death of daddy...


A man goes into his son's room to wish him goodnight. His son 
is having a nightmare - the man wakes him and asks his son if 
he is OK?

The son replies he is scared because he dreamt that Auntie 
Susie had died.  The father assures the son that Auntie Susie 
is fine and sends him to bed.

The next day, Auntie Susie dies.

One week later, the man again goes into his son's room to wish him 
goodnight.  His son is having another nightmare - the man again 
wakes his son.  The son this time says that he had dreamt that 
granddaddy had died. The father assures the son that granddaddy 
is fine and sends him to bed.

The next day, granddaddy dies.

One week later, the man again goes into his son's room to wish him 
goodnight.  His son is having another nightmare - the man again 
wakes his son.  The son this time says that he had dreamt that daddy 
had died.  The father assures the son that he is OK and sends the 
boy to bed.

The man goes to bed but cannot sleep because he is so terrified. 
The next day, the man is scared for his life- he is sure he is going to 
die.  After dressing he drives very cautiously to work fearful of a 
collision. He doesn't eat lunch because he is scared of food 
poisoning.  He avoids everyone for he is sure he will somehow be 
killed.  He jumps at every noise, starts at every movement and hides 
under his desk.  At the end of a very painfully long day, he again 
drives slowly home.

Upon walking in his front door, he finds his wife.  "Good God Dear," 
he proclaims, "I've just had the worst day of my entire life!"  She 
responds, "You think your day was bad, the milkman dropped dead on 
the doorstep this morning".
