The surgeon said, 'Joe, the good news is I can cure your headaches of 20 years.
The bad news is that it will require castration. You have a very rare condition, your headache is caused by your testicles pressing on your spine and the pressure going to your head.
The only way to relieve the pressure is to remove the testicles.'
Joe was shocked and depressed. He wondered if he had anything to live for. But Joe had no life as such for the past 20 years anyway. It was ruined by this nasty headache he suffered day and night. Joe had no choice but to go under the knife.
When he left the hospital, Joe was without a headache for the first time in 20 years, but he felt like he was missing an important part of himself.
