Arab & Gujarati

An Arab was admitted in the Lilavati Hospital

at Mumbai for heart transplant, but prior to the

surgery the doctors needed to store his blood

in case need arises.

As the gentleman had a rare type of blood,

it couldn't be found locally.

So the call went out to a number of countries.

Finally a Gujarati was located who had a

similar type of blood.

The Gujarati willingly donated his blood

for the Arab.

After the surgery, the Arab sent the Gujarati

as appreciation for giving his blood,

a new Toyota Prado, diamonds,

lapiz lazuri jewellery

and a million US dollars.

Once again the Arab had to go through

a corrective surgery.

His doctor telephoned the Gujarati who was

more than happy to donate his blood again.

After the second surgery, the Arab sent the

Gujarati a thank you card and a

jar of Almond halwa sweets.

The Gujarati was shocked to see that the Arab

this time did not reciprocate the Gujarati's

kind gesture as he had anticipated.

He phoned the Arab and asked him that

this time also I thoughtthat you would give me

Toyota Prado, Diamonds and Jewellery... ..

But you gave only a thank you card

and a jar of Almond sweets ....

On this the Arab replied

"Bapu.....now I have Gujju blood

in my veins!"
