Here is another note dictated by a nurse.
(On assessing if a patient is with it)
"Alert and oriented to person/place and time. However thought current president
was Rommel (correct answer would be Obama) and last president was Ford. When
confronted stated that he always confuses Ford and Bush."
Yes this is completely true. The patient thought Rommel (Field Marshall Erwin Johannes Eugen Rommel of Hitler's Nazi Germany) was our president. Of course this went on for about five minutes and we figured the patient may have said "Ronald" as in Ronald Reagan, but I personally like the Rommel story better.
I also enjoy the fact the nurse included "Obama" as being the correct answer, as if the person reading the note has had their head in the sand for the last 2 years.
(The Medical Intern later questioned the patient and got this answer.)
"Some foreigner is the president but I know he's going to be good."
That's that. I cannot interpret that any cleaner or twist words to make it more funny. It is perfect just the way he said it!
