David felt a pleasant buzz of contentment as he entered the hospital, and he was eager to be called in. He’d been feeling sluggish lately and was hoping to finally get some answers. Everything was going perfectly in his life, and he felt nothing but positive thoughts.

The doctor called him in.

“Mr. Evans,” the doctor began. “There appears to be an error with your file.” David’s heart leapt.

"This medical record appears to belong to someone else. These results indicate… a severe heart condition.” David felt an uncontainable rush of elation.

"A heart condition? I'm planning on running a triathlon next year!"
