Ralph and Edna
« on: August 10, 2018, 09:53:18 PM »
Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to,
doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
 
Ralph and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital.
 
One day, while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool,  Ralph
suddenly jumped into the deep end.  He sank to the bottom of the pool and
stayed there.
 
Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled him
out.
 
When the Head Nurse Director became aware of Edna's heroic act ,she
immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now
considered her to be mentally stable.
 
When she went to tell Edna the news, she said, 'Edna, I have good news
and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged, since you were
able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the
life of the person you love. I have concluded that your act displays
sound mindedness.The bad news is, Ralph hung himself in the bathroom
with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him. I am so sorry, but he's
dead.'
 
Edna replied, 'He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry.
 
How soon can I go home?'
