East TX Posted September 25, 2009 Report Posted September 25, 2009 copy/paste Hospital regulations require a wheel chair for patients being discharged. However, while working as a student nurse, I found one elderly 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.'
East TX Posted September 25, 2009 Author Report Posted September 25, 2009 "If you think that swimming is good for your figure, I suggest you study the whale... and while I'm at it, this week make sure you're kind to retired people, 'cos unlike you, they never get a day off!" This is a quote from--Lou Holtz......he is one of my favorite.
