HOSPITAL

Pray that you never end up in one of South Africa’s hospitals!!!
CLEANER POLISHES OFF PATIENTS
“For several months, our nurses have been baffled to
find a patient dead in the same bed every Friday
morning” a spokeswoman for the Pelonomi Hospital
(Free State, South Africa) told reporters. “There was
no apparent cause for any of the deaths, and extensive
checks on the air conditioning system, and a search for
possible bacterial infection, failed to reveal any clues.
However, further inquiries have now revealed the cause
of these deaths. It seems that every Friday morning a
cleaning lady would enter the ward, remove the plug that
powered the patient’s life support system, plug her

some good nursery rhymes, ” hey diddle diddle, the cat did a

HbA1C

Tuesday, March 25th, 2003

Well, here we can cheat no more without being found out. It is a test that
gives an average of the BG over the last 6 weeks - 3 months.

good #. Now one test reveals all. Yours would probably be outta sight.
