He arrived convinced his blue hands meant he was dying, and every second seemed to confirm his worst fears.
But the answer waiting inside that exam room would turn terror into embarrassment, opening the door to more medical mishaps, missing underwear, and laughter nobody could contain.

Illness and uncertainty remained serious, but embarrassment offered another story to tell: sometimes, the detail that stays with you is the one that made everyone laugh.
