This is a cute story about a patient I took care of for a couple of weeks.
Mrs Brown, as we will call her, had a stroke and it was a close call. She recovered slow but well.

At the time this story took place, nurses made rounds with the doctors. Her neurologist made rounds on her once a day if not twice. Every day he would ask her "Mrs. Brown what is today's date?" She would respond with the correct date. "Now tell me what year is it" Again she would give the correct year. Now Mrs. Brown tell me who is the president" Once more she replied with the correct answer. This question and answer game went on everyday for a couple of weeks.

Mrs Brown shared her hospital room with another woman. After the doc came into see her, I over heard her telling her room mate. "You know that is a wonderful doctor, but he is way over-worked. He is so tired and worn out that he comes to see me everyday to find out who the president is and what the day and year is"

I had to go to another room so I could laugh. I then told the doc and he said, " You know she is almost right"
