You Might Need To Sit Down For This
Hospital, Pennsylvania, Pittsburgh, USA | Healthy | December 6, 2017
(My mom and I have just arrived at the emergency room after being sent from a local fast ER over possible appendicitis. While we are getting checked in, an older man arrives.)
Man: “I’m having chest pain and pain in my arm.”
Nurse: “We’re taking you back immediately, sir. Please get in this wheelchair.”
Man: “No thanks; I’m good to walk.”
Nurse: “Please, sir, take a seat in the wheelchair.”
Man: “No, I insist I’m good to walk.”
Mom: “Take a d*** seat in the chair. If you’re having a heart attack do you really want to be walking right now?”
(He sat in the chair and grumbled while they took him away.)
