Subject: RE: BS: catsPHiddle going into Hospital
OK - a couple hot off ... my cousin, actually:

An gentleman had serious hearing problems for a number of years. He went to the doctor and the doctor was able to have him fitted for a set of hearing aids that allowed the gentleman to hear 100%.

The gentleman went back in a month to the doctor and the doctor said, "Your hearing is perfect. Your family must be really pleased that you can hear again." The gentleman replied, "Oh, I haven't told my family yet. I just sit around and listen to the conversations. I've changed my will three times!"

       *******************************************************

Hospital regulations require a wheelchair for patients being discharged. However, while working as a student nurse, I found one gentleman--already dressed and sitting on the bed with a suitcase at his feet--who insisted he didn't need my help to leave the
hospital. After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me wheel him to the elevator.

On the way down I asked him if his wife was meeting him. "I don't know," he said. "She's still upstairs in the bathroom changing out
of her hospital gown."


Micca ... don't even think about it ... !
