Anyone who has ever had a loved one in the hospital will enjoy this:
A woman called a local hospital. "Hello. Could you connect me to the person
who gives information about patients. I'd like to find out if a family
member is doing better."
The voice on the other end said, "What is the patient's name and room
number?"
"Sarah Finkel, room 302."
"I'll connect you with the nursing station."
"3-A Nursing Station. How can I help You?"
"I'd like to know the condition of Sarah Finkel in room 302."
"Are you a family member?"
"Yes, Yes I am"
"Hold on, let me look at her records...
Mrs. Finkel is doing very well. In fact, she's had two full meals, her blood
pressure is fine, she is to be taken off the heart monitor in a couple of
hours and, if she continues this improvement, looks like Dr. Cohen is going
to send her home very soon!"
The woman said, "What a relief! Oh, that's fantastic... that's wonderful
news!"
The nurse said, "From your enthusiasm, I take it you are a sister or
perhaps
an aunt?"
"Neither!
I'm Sarah Finkel in 302 and NOBODY ever tells me anything!"
