Five Statements Hospital Patients Would Rather Not Hear
Five Things
My buddy Virgil Fry, Executive Director of Lifeline Chaplaincy, has been collecting statements hospital patients would rather not hear over his 25 years of chaplaincy. Here are a few of my favorites from his list:
1. “Wow! Look at all the flowers in here. Looks like you’re getting ready for a funeral!”
2. “Did you know that massive doses of vitamins could have prevented that?”
3. “I’d have come sooner, but I didn’t know that you were this bad.”
4. “At least you’re getting a break from the kids.”
5. “I can’t believe I had to pay to park just to see you.”
I bet you’ve heard some other statements that should be added to the list. Fire away in the comments.

“Well, THAT didn’t work! Let’s try something else…”
1. Wow that drainage looks nasty
2. The last guy I visited that looked as bad as you died shortly after I left.
3. All this equipment in here, I hope you have some great insurance or you are gonna be broke!
Just remember, everything happens for a reason.
