A phone call to the hospital

A sweet old lady 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 of the patient?"
The old lady in her weak, tremulous voice said, "Norma Findlay, Room 302."

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

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 physician, Dr. Cohen, has scheduled her to be discharged tomorrow."

The old lady 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 old lady said, "No, I'm Norma Findlay in Room 302. No one tells me anything"!

James Kimo Rosen Thank Dog is right, when 'Cheer' turns the cheek we can 'Surf' or 'Gain' some 'Bounce!'

Does Woolite(sp?) no longer exist?
Obviously I don't know, since I can't even recall how it's spelled anymore!

James Kimo Rosen woo, your right , or lets just say with an accent 'Woolite!'

Jaana Makipaa Oh wow, it still exists? And I am too brain-tired to come up with something catchy for it at all.
In fact, I think I'm dead.
Not sure how I'm even typing.
But I would definitely not compare Woolite to woo. From what I recall, that's a genuinely good product.

Jaana Makipaa My friend, do NOT even use the word "clean" today. You can use the word after midnight, but today is all cleaned out.
