Funny Story
So working at a hopspital is definitely an eye opener to the side rawness and fraility of human life. the postives and the negatives. I am a humble secretary who works behind the scenes entering in doctor's order and ocassionally bringing blankets or ginger ale to patients. Many instances I get mistaken for a nurse and asked medical questions on such instances was last night. I answer the patient's call phone at the desk and this elderly black male patient could not clearly tell me what he needed so I proceded into his room to get a clearer answer. He said "Let me show you something." I said "Ok" hesitantly. He then threw the sheet off and whipped out his frank and beans and said "Does this look ok to you?" pointing at the catheter that he had in place. I said "I don't know sir is it bothering you?" trying not to die of laughter. (My experience relating to male anatomy if very very limited) "Let me go and get the nurse" I said as I scurried quickly out of the room. Needless to say the next five minutes or so when he called back in and his nurse asked what he wanted, I said "I'm not sure, your turn to check."
