Funny stories

My wife thinks that some of stories when I went through chemotherapy are the funniest things shes has ever heard, so I decided to share a few. It is going to be hard to translate how funny they are from a keyboard but lets give it a try. I have to say some of the funniest occurrences happened  when I had been admitted for the first time. The ex wife and I were trying to have kids before we found out I had cancer and  we went to the fertility clinic to get checked out. They told me I had bad sperm and would not be able to have kids. About two months later I found out I had testicular cancer, but in my chest. The type of cancer was a germ cell tumor, a form of testicular cancer. After finding this out every doctor who had anything to do with oncology or urology had to come give me an exam due to its rarity and the hospital I was in was a military training hospital. After two days of people feeling my balls I was pretty use to it, so when a lady comes in the room and tells me she is there to give me an exam  I was use to the routine of dropping my boxers and lifting my hospital gown. When the nurse turned around and pronounced she was only there for my blood pressure  and shrouded here eyes I must have turned eight shades of red. I asked her if we could get my blood pressure later because mine was pretty high right now she said yeah your not the only one. She never came back to check my blood pressure again but all of my future nurses proclaimed quite clearly what they were there to do.
