    If you or anyone you know well has been in the hospital recently, you
    can relate!

    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 and said, 'Oh, I have good news. Her nurse just 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 grandmother said, 'Thank you. That's wonderful! I was so worried!
    God bless you for the good news.'

    Th e 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 ****.'

    True Story (apparentlly)

    Good joke. Small tip though, claiming to be a true story often detracts from a joke
