The phone call

[pair8head]

A woman, calling Mount Sinai Hospital, said, "Hello,
darling, I'd like to talk with the person who gives the information
regarding your patients. I want to know if the patient is getting
better, or doing like expected, or is getting worse.
The voice on the other end of the line said, "What is the patient's
name and room number?"
She said, "Yes, darling! she's Sarah Finkel, in Room 302."
He said, "Oh, yes. Mrs. Finkel is doing very well. In fact, she's had
two full meals, her blood pressure is fine, her blood work just came
back as normal, she's going to be taken off the heart monitor in a couple
of hours and if she continues this improvement, Dr. Cohen is going to
send her home Tuesday at twelve o' clock."
The woman said, "Thank God! That's wonderful! Oh! that's fantastic,
darling!... That's wonderful news!"
The man on the phone said, "From your enthusiasm, I take it you must
be a close family member or a very close friend!"
She said, "No, I'm Sarah Finkel in 302! Cohen, my doctor, doesn't
tell me sh*t!"
