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,
"Oh, good news. Her nurse has 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
Tuesday."
The grand mother 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 CHIT
