Mildred was a 93 year old woman who was particularly despondent over the
recent death of her husband Earl. She decided that she would just kill
herself and join him in death. Thinking that it would be best to get it
over with quickly, she took out Earl's old army pistol and made the
decision to shoot herself in the heart since it was already so badly broken
in the first place. Not wanting to miss the vital organ and become a
vegetable and burden to someone, she called her doctor to inquire as to
just exactly where the heart would be.
The doctor said, "Your heart would be just below your left breast."
Later that night, Mildred was admitted to the hospital with a gunshot wound
to her knee.
