"Depressed Man" joke

There was once a very depressed man that went to see the psychiatrist. He was advised to go on a holiday to unwind and relax his mental and emotional burdens. Upon his return from the holiday, the man's assistant went to the airport to welcome him back.
Man: "How's everything here?"
Assistant: "Well, nothing much, but your dog died."
Man: "How did he die?"
Assistant: "Well, because he ate burned horse meat."
Man: "Where did the meat come from?"
Assistant: Well..your ranch caught fire and burned down."
Man: "What? How did that happen?"
Assistant: "It was the sparks from your house that started the fire on the ranch."
Man: "What? A fire broke out in my house?"
Assistant: "Yes, the curtains caught fire from your mother's altar."
Man: "My mum's what?"
Assistant: "Oh..your mother's altar. Well, she died."
Man: "All this happened and you said nothing much had taken place? How did she die?"
Assistant: "Well..your wife ran away with another man and your mother had a heart attack."
