A sweet grandmother telephoned Salisbury District 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 of the patient?"
The grandmother in her weak, tremulous voice said, "Norma Findlay,
Durrington Ward, Side Room 302

The operator replied, "Let me put you on hold while I check with the
nurse's station for that Ward"

After a few minutes, the operator returned to the phone and said, "I
have good news. Her nurse just told me that Norma is doing well. Her
blood pressure is fine; her blood work just came back normal and her
doctor, Dr. Cohen, has scheduled her to be discharged tomorrow."

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.
No onetells me anything."
