本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Jim and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital. One day while
they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Jim suddenly
jumped into
the
deep end. He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there. Edna
promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled
Jim
out.
When the Head Nurse Director became aware of Edna's heroic act, she
immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she
now considered her to be mentally stable.
When she went to tell Edna the news she said, 'Edna, I have good
news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged; since
you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and
saving the life
of
another patient, I have concluded that your act displays sound
mindedness.
The bad news is, Jim, the patient you saved, hung himself in the
bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him.
I am so sorry,but he's dead.'
Edna replied, 'He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry. How
soon can I go home?更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
