"joke"

CP was very ill last week, totally wiped out by some evil virus. So poorly in fact, that our booked and paid for jaunt to Bruges had to be abandoned. She could barely move for much of the week, and felt nauseous when she did. I was genuinely quite worried at one point and called the GP to arrange a home visit. CP hadn't eaten or drunk anything for several days yet still felt sick for most of the time. I came home from work after the GP had visited and asked how things had gone. CP then began talking quite animatedly, but instead of answering my question she started muttering things like, "They're all the same you know...they control the world...always after money, looking out for themselves...weird customs...". I was baffled - what was going on? I picked up the bottle of pills by her side and it became clear - the pharmacist had given her a dose of anti-semitics by mistake. Well, you know what doctors' handwriting is like.


Thankfully, she's made a full recovery.
