Illegal Drugs and a Married Man

None of my patients tonight were especially confused, yet I still had some strange encounters. I was giving one patient morphine in her IV line, when she looked at me with big eyes and whispered, "Is this legal?" I assured that it was and she replied, "Are you sure?" While I was explaining why it's legal to take morphine, I was wondering, does she actually think that in a hospital we would be giving our patients illegal drugs?

Another patient was so sweet and complementary. She began telling me about her son and how she would like to fix us up. I was looking forward to meeting him until she mentioned that he was married. I'm so astonished, I don't know what to say, except that I won't be going out with him. What was she thinking?
