A short story

(It's totally a coincindence that the man in this story and my dad have the same name).
An 90-year old man goes for a physical.
All of his tests come back with normal results.
The doctor says, "Chuck, everything looks great! How are you doing mentally and emotionally? Are you at peace with God?"
Chuck replies, "God and I are tight. He knows I have poor eyesight, so he's fixed it so when I get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, POOF! the light goes on. When I'm done, POOF! the light goes off."
"WOW, that's incredible," the doctor says.
A little later in the day, the doctor calls Chuck's wife.
"Ethel," he says, "Chuck is doing fine! But, I had to call you as I am in awe of his relationship with God. Is it true that when he gets up during the night, POOF! the light goes on in the bathroom and when he's done POOF! the light goes off?"
"Oh, my God!" Ethel exclaims, "He's peeing in the refrigerator again!"
