The medical director came to know of David’s heroic act. He
immediately ordered that David be discharged from the hospital
as he now considered him to be OK.
The doctor said, “David, we have good news and bad news for you!
The good news is that we are going to discharge you because you
have regained your sanity. Since you were able to jump in the pool
and save another patient, you must be mentally stable. The bad news
is that the patient that you saved hung himself in the bathroom and
died after all.”
David replied, “Doctor, John didn’t hang himself. I hung him there
to dry.”
