Happy Mental Health Day
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?'
