The hospital dream

I was a patient in a hospital for unknown reasons. I was hooked up to machines but I felt fine. The nurses were so busy that they offered to pay me if I would keep an eye on my own machines. I accepted, since I wasn't doing anything else and they clearly needed my help. All I had to do was make sure that the machines didn't fall apart and that the chords didn't get tangled. Everything was going fine until another patient decided to keep hitting their emergency call button. For some reason, the nurses thought it was me and came into my room every time they heard the alarms go off. Each time they came into my room I told them that everything was fine and that it was another patient that needed their help. They finally figured out who was setting off the alarms and left me alone. After awhile a nurse came in and said, "It's time to take you off of these machines. Since you did such a great job, we would like you to work with us at the desk. You wont have to do much and you can rest any time." I accepted this job as well because I still felt fine and wanted to help. I went out to the desk and asked the nurses if they needed any help. They said that they were fine for the moment. I decided to walk around a little to stretch my legs and suddenly a group of employees ran up to me. I could see that they were all stressed about something so I asked them what was wrong. One of them said that they have two order forms that don't match up. I took a look at the forms and somebody had been very careless when filling them out. I said I could fix them but that it would take me a minute. All the employees wanted to stay and watch me though so that they could learn how to do it correctly. We all sat down at a table and I started to explain how to fill the forms out and what needed to be done to fix them. Each time I finished a section of the form one of the employees would erase what I wrote and tell me to explain it again. It actually didn't bother me that he did this. I thought it was funny and was happy to explain it again. I guess it was just the teacher in me. It took a long time to finish the order forms but when we were done everyone was relieved. I went back to the front desk and a nurse told me that I was being discharged to go home. They paid me for the work I had done and said that I was welcome to work with them at any time. I thought to myself, "This is the best hospital stay anyone could ask for. I didn't even feel sick and I got to help."
