Smart Grandmother
A sweet grandmother telephoned St. Joseph 's
Hospital. She timidly asked,
'Is it possible to speak to someone who can tell
me how a patient is doing?'
The operator said, 'I'll be glad to help,
dear. What's the name and room number?'
The grandmother in her weak, tremulous voice said,
'Norma Findlay Room 302.'
The operator replied, 'Let me place you on hold
while I check with her nurse
After a few minutes, the operator returned to the
phone and said, 'Oh, I have good news. Her nurse just told me that Norma is
doing very well.
Her blood pressure is fine; her blood work just came back as normal, and
Her physician, Dr. Cohen, has scheduled her to be
discharged on Tuesday.'
The grandmother said, 'Thank you. That's
wonderful! I was so worried! God bless you for the good news.'
The operator replied, 'You're more than welcome. Is Norma your daughter?'
The grandmother said, 'No, I'm Norma Findlay in 302. No one tells me anything!.'
True Story.
