Wrong timing

Why don't you sleep when I'm trying to sedate you. After giving you maximum doses of 2 medication plus another dose of undisclosed medication, you finally gave your last struggle and fell into a deep sleep.

Now I want to discharge you but you're sleeping like a log. How can you treat me like this?

Note: At last, my patient was fully awake before I left home and was safely discharged from hospital.

Doesn't the hospital make more money if you don't discharge the sleeping beauty?

(Just trying to look on the bright side)... :-)

well, it's a government hospital. they're losing more if we keep the patients longer than needed cause the cost is subsidised.
