my wonderful patients

I work at Owensboro Medical Health System in the Dietary department, and there are a lot of funny people I meet everyday. There was recently a woman in there, she was really old and very petite. She ordered about 3 sandwiches and 2 bowls of soup for supper. I thought to myself, where could all of this food be going? Well I was passing by her room and I could hear her calling for someone, as i cautiously approached her room I realized that she was not crying for help, but for her pig. Now im sure you are as confused as I was at the time, haha. I went into her room and asked her what in the world she was doing, mind you she is covered in the three turkey sandwiches I had previously brought her. She simply replied that she was looking for her pet piggy and was making sure that he had enough to eat before the kitchen closed! Needless to say there was no pig and the patient had her dinner for the evening!
