Can you answer this riddle?

[Liz M]

A girl in my class told me this one....
Ok a mother and her son are involved in a car crash but fortunately they are alive but nonetheless sent to hospital. The mother stays in a ward for women and on a completely different ward is the son. Then, a nurse walks by and says: "That's my son"
How is this possible?

 

[emanunger8]

the mom is a nurse who was sent to the hospital because she was on her way to work

 

[ilovemenwithhairyfeet]

the nurse is the boys father

The mother works in the hospital as a nurse.

not all nurses are women, people! the nurse is the son's FATHER
