Laughter - The Best Medicine
I recieved the following as an email forward today...
This story was told by a nurse who was on duty at the SARS ward in Tan Tock Sen Hospital, Singapore and she swears this really happened in her ward. A man suspected of SARS was lying in bed with a mask over his mouth. A young intern nurse appeared to sponge his face and hands.
Patient (wearing a mask): Nurse, are my testicles black?
Intern Nurse (embarrassed): I don't know, and I'm here only to wash your face and hands.
Patient (struggling from behind the mask): Nurse, Are my testicles black?
Nurse (still embarrassed): I can't tell. I'm here only to wash your face and hands.
The Head Nurse was passing and saw the man getting a little distraught so she marched over to see what was wrong.
Patient (to the Head Nurse): Nurse, Are my testicles black?
Being a nurse of long-standing, the Head Nurse was undaunted. She whipped back the bedclothes, pulled down his pajama, had a right good look, pulled up the pajamas, replaced the bedclothes and announced, "Nothing wrong with your testicles!!!"
At this the man angrily pulled off his mask and barked, "I SAID.... Are my TESTS RESULTS BACK!! ???"
Hehehe...
