That's my patient's story-sort of

A patient came in today announcing that her son is now 6 foot 3 and a half inches tall and is still growing. She then referenced an uncle who was 6 foot 10 inches when he died.

Being a smarty pants I asked, "How tall was he before he died?"

She didn't miss a beat....

"Oh he was only 5 foot 4 but then there was that nasty steam roller incident."
