A visit to the hospital part 2-the spill

Another day, Kimberly spilled her orange drink on her bed and the floor. We rang for the nurse and asked them to clean it up.

"Ok, ok, 5 minutes"

I went downstairs to get some crackers for Kimberly. By the time I got back, I thought the mess had been cleaned up. About 20 minutes later, Kimberly asked me to call the nurse again. I asked why...to clean up the mess, she responded.

So I called the nurse again. "Ok, ok, 10 minutes." This time, I sent an alarm...if they weren't back in 10 minutes, I was going to go out there and get them. At 9 minutes, the first nurse came back in. He stepped in the spilled drink and then asked why it was still there. We said no one had come to clean it up. "What?! 10 minutes...someone will clean it up."

I reset my alarm. 10 minutes later, no one has cleaned up the mess. So, I go to the front desk. I said, "I want a sheet and a towel. Abhee (now!). I have asked you to clean up the spill 3 times and you haven't. So give me what I need and I will do it myself. Abhee!" And they all laughed because I used a word from their language. I turned around, "It's not funny. Now!"

Finally, a lady brought in a towel and a sheet and just looked at me. I shook my head, grabbed the towel and started cleaning the floor. The first nurse walked in. "Why are you cleaning the floor?"

"Because no one else will!"
