A father and son were involved in a car accident.
 
The father was killed. He was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident.  His body was taken to a local morgue.
 
The son was seriously injured. He was taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital. He was immediately wheeled into an emergency operating theatre.
 
A surgeon was called. Upon arrival, and seeing the patient, the attending surgeon exclaimed, “Oh my God.  It’s my son!”
