A sweet grandmother telephoned Mount Sinai 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, "Holly Finkel
in room 302."
The
Operator replied, "Let me check. Oh, good news. Her records
say that Holly 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 Holly your
daughter?"
The
Grandmother said, "No, I'm Holly Finkel in 302. Dr.Cohen doesn't
tell me anything!" |
