Dad
When he was young, his friend John Parkes, pushed him through a plate glass door and a huge shard of glass severed his neck. He had 70 stitches and has a scar 10 inches long. It missed his jugular by mm.
In the hospital his dad came to see how he was.
"Had you been drinking?", he asked, and knowing him too well added, "Don't nod, your head will fall off".
His Aunt also visited and bought him some grapes. She didn't ask how he was, informed him of her friend's terrible cold and ate all the grapes.
