It's a popular Easter and spring decoration.

A boy called Bruce...

A small boy named Bruce lived in a suburb of Sydney, Australia . 
 

 

None of his classmates liked him because of his stupidity, especially his teacher, who was always yelling at him, "You’re driving me mad, Bruce."

 

 

One day, Bruce 's mum came to school to check on how he was doing. The teacher told his mum honestly, that her son was simply a disaster, getting very low marks, and never had she seen such a dumb boy in her entire teaching career. 
 

 

The mum was shocked at the feedback and withdrew her son from school and moved out of Sydney, relocating to Newcastle. 
 

 

25 years later, the teacher was diagnosed with an incurable cardio disease. All the doctors strongly advised her to have heart surgery, which only one surgeon 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 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 eventually died.

 

 

The doctor was shocked and was trying to determine what went wrong.

 

When he turned around, he saw our friend Bruce, working as a cleaner in the clinic, who had unplugged the oxygen equipment in order to connect his vacuum cleaner. 
 

 

 

Don't tell me you thought Bruce became a heart surgeon.
