It's not. Apparently it actually happened. His kid did an interview on the radio about the incident and everything.
.
I'm not sure the doctor actually was expecting a response. I didn't listen to the radio interview, but some people have said the doctor said something more akin to "how are you today, bugs?" After Mel responded the doctor also asked if tweety bird was around, to which Mel replied "I tawt I taw a puddy tat."
.
He didn't fully recover for another 7 months though
