Senior Humor
HOSPITAL HUMOR
Why do you always have to wait at the hospital?
Because you’re patient.
A man was admitted to the hospital after swallowing 6 plastic horses.
His condition has been described as stable.
Who is the nicest guy in the hospital?
The ultra-sound guy.
What's the worst place to hide in a hospital?
The ICU.
I accidentally drank a bottle of invisible ink.
I was in the hospital all night, waiting to be seen.
Doctor: "Your wife has been hospitalized."
Me: "How is she?"
Doctor: "I'm afraid she's critical."
Me: "Oh, you get used to that."
