Death's Door

A person1 is in the hospital and asked his doctor how much time does he have left to live.

The doctor did2 not want to lie3 so he told him that he wouldn't make it through the night.

So the person calls for his lawyer4 and asks him to come and sit by his bed.

Right before the person dies5, the lawyer asks him why did he want him next to him.

The dying6 person replied7, When Jesus died8, he had9 a thief10 next to him and I want to go the same way.
