Because of his stupidity and clumsiness, his teacher, was always yelling at him,
“You’re driving me crazy, Tyrone!”
One day, Tyrone’s mama came to school to check on how he was doing. The
teacher told his mama honestly, that her son was simply a disaster, getting
very low marks, and that she had never seen such a stupid boy in her entire
teaching career.
The mama was so shocked at the feedback that she withdrew her son from school
and moved out of Detroit, relocating to Cleveland.
Twenty-five years later, the teacher was diagnosed with an almost incurable cardiac
disease. All the doctors strongly advised her to have open heart surgery, which only
one surgeon at the Cleveland Clinic could perform. Left with no other options, the
teacher decided to have the operation, which was successful.
When she opened her eyes after the surgery she saw a handsome young doctor smiling down at her. She wanted to thank him, but could not talk. Her face started to turn blue, she raised her hand, trying to tell him something but quickly died.
The doctor was shocked, wondering what went wrong so suddenly. Then he turned around and saw our friend Tyrone, a janitor in the Clinic, who had unplugged the life-support equipment in order to connect his vacuum cleaner.
