Dory’s 7th and final silly Christmas Story

Hi this is Dory and this is the 7th silly story and it’s 2 for 1 again and this will be the last one. Thank god, I know you’re all saying. Here we go, years ago I spent some time after a bad accident in a spinal ward and we were all, you know, well I had a broken neck and we were all broken necks and broken backs, but we used to have some fun. Well we’d have a laugh, so we were all lying flat on these beds and there was a lady in the bed next to me from Scotland and she used to have sort of midnight feasts and count her money. So you’d hear this rustling every night while she was chomping away and counting her money. Anyway the nurses came round in the morning to give us bed baths and I could hear some giggling going on. So I said to the nurse “is everything ok?” They said that when they turned Josephine they found, she had after eight mints and a £20 note stuck to her bottom. So that was that little story.
And the 2nd story involving the same lady, she was put in a body brace and she was allowed to get into a wheelchair. There was big patio doors that opened on one side of the ward. So she went outside to have a smoke so she sat just outside the door in her wheelchair to have a smoke. Well I was still having to stay flat on the bed, and we had these special mirrors that hung down from the ceiling so I could see without moving my head, sort of what was going on. I could see Josie and I could see her waving her arms around and I thought she was waving to me so I was sort of put my hands up to wave back and then there was a bit of commotion and what had actually happened was that the end of her cigarette had fallen off and landed in her slipper and her slipper was on fire. She was waving her arms to get attention and I was waving hello. So that’s that story. Anyway, I hope you’ve enjoyed them, these all happened before I had dementia so I think I’m better now with dementia than I was before. Anyway I hope you all have a lovely Christmas and enjoyable and peaceful. I’ll give you all a rest from me now. And hope to see you all through the year, next year. Ok, Bye.
