I'm not the only nurse on Pet Talk... so this is for my PT health care buddies... and I'm sure those of you who have ever visited a family member in the hospital will also get a chuckle out of it. A former co-worker (who's also a nurse) sent this to me recently. Author unknown.

~~~~~
I assisted one of my elderly patients to the bathroom so she could
have a BM. I tell her that I'll let her sit for a while but as soon as
she's done, to please pull the call bell (and I showed her where it
was) so I could come and assist her back to bed. She agrees.

I go and complete some other tasks that need doing (isn't there
always?). After a while, I think to myself, 'She hasn't rung yet?!' I
go and check on her and she's still sitting on the toilet.

She goes, "Oh, I've been waiting and waiting for you! I'm done!"

I ask, "Why didn't you pull the call bell when you were done? I would
have been here sooner."

She looks at me, confused. "I did. Like this, right?" She then takes
the pull string and swings it so the little knob at the end hits the
metal rail on the wall, making a DING! noise.

I almost facepalmed.

Details, details! That's a cute one.
