Norma Findlay, Room 302

Here's a dry little joke for any of you who have experienced a hospital in-stay recently........I have.......I understand.


An elderly woman telephoned St. Michael'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?"

In a tremulous voice the woman 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 on Tuesday."

The woman 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 woman said, "No, I'm Norma Findlay in 302. No one tells me anything."
