Joe Biden: Handling Health Care ... One Patient At A Time

We're not sure if there's anything quite as scary as having a brain aneurysm. 
Have you Wikipedia-ed that s#*t? It can come out of nowhere!

But if we did get one, we know who we'd want to have our back -- Vice President Joe Biden.

You see, besides going to the movies with just his Secret Service detail and getting train stations named after him,Joe is the survivor of not one, but two, brain aneurysms!

So, when MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski called him last April to ask if there was anything he could do for her producer, Chris Licht, who was in the hospital for an aneurysm, Joe leapt into action. He called a neurosurgeon at the hospital that was treating Chris, and asked him to take an interest in the patient.

It's all in Chris' memoir, What I Learned When I Almost Died, which hits bookstores later this month.

Apparently, Chris observed one of the of the hospital staffers motioning to him and mouthing the name "Biden."

Wow. That’s got to be weird.
