Funny comments from nursing home land

I love the things our sursing home patients sometimes say. They are gems, they make me smile. And also they make me hope that I won't be this way when I am older!

Here are a couple of recent examples:

~ Patient to me "You're crazy!" Me: " No I'm Not." Patient: " Yes you are"

~ Today I had to smile at the way one of my nursing home patients in his early 90s talked to me. Yesterday he called me honey. Not so today! When I approached him for therapy (granted it was the 3rd time due to his earlier refusals), I said hi. He looked at me and said "bye bye" and he then proceeded to tell me to " leave his room" and "go to your own home!" So when I accepted his refusal and nicely said see you tomorrow, his reply included a bad word.

Love it!!!
