Something to think about......

Humor is Healthy, Humor is Healing....don't you agree? UNLESS......the medical record entries below are found in YOUR chart! The following are actual entries discovered in patients medical records:

"The patient has been depressed ever since she began seeing me in 1983"

(Gladys says: I personally think she should change doctors!)

"She is numb from her toes down"

(Gladys says: Come to think of it, I am too)

"Patient was seen in the ER, x-rated and sent home"

(Gladys says: Now just WHAT is healthcare coming to? ~ LOL)

Enjoy your weekend!

This week, Denise & Gladys were confirmed as speakers in Pensacola, Florida & California. Stay tuned for more updates along with a video of "The Interview" with Denise & Gladys via www.youtube.com/msgladysfriday

Doggy Wonderland by Gladys Friday

The Friday Funny ~ "In Search Of Husbands" ~ Gladys Friday

"Gladys" was at the hospital, taking her "old man" to have his hearing checked. She ran into a friend while she was waiting. Her friend was also there with her "husband" ~ he was having an xray from a "sports related injury."

Both were searching for their husbands. "Gladys" asked, "what does your husband look like, I'll help you find him?" and Ethel said, "well, he is 6 feet 2 inches tall, 36 years old, tan, muscular, full head of dark hair with crystal blue eyes and the sweetest smile you've EVER seen.....what does yours look like?"

"Gladys" said while fanning herself......"it doesn't matter.....let's look for YOURS!"

I'm "Gladys Friday" ~ aren't you?

Rhinocort the Red-nosed Reindeer!

Well It All Depends!!!

Merry Christmas!

This just in.....

You Can "DEPEND" On Christmas ~

Good morning! I'm "Gladys Friday" today, aren't you?

I want to tell you about my friend Jody White, Administrator for Gaston Urological. She has such a giving spirit, she is always thinking of someone else. This year for Christmas, she decided to give the gift of DEPENDS in honor of her physicians and staff. She and her husband built a large Christmas Tree with wrapped boxes of DEPENDS. After her presentation to the physicians & staff, the tree was delivered to Cancer Services of Gaston County to be shared with patients in need. What a wonderful blessing! Jody had asked me to write a poem to go along with her tree to present to the healthcare professionals of Gaston Urological so...."Gladys" and Denise turned their imagination on (they play well together) sharing happiness, humor and hope. Jody said they loved it and "we" hope you will too:

You Can "DEPEND" On Christmas

written by Denise Price Thomas aka "Gladys Friday"

written for Jody White, Administrator, Gaston Urological

T'was the month of Christmas

and all through the office

All creatures were stirring

Some acting quite pompous

Financial reports and patients to see

"I've met my deductible, you HAVE to see ME!"

We answer the phone "Could you please hold?"

"NO, I CANNOT!" by the patient I'm told

"I'm calling because I have a party to throw

and I have a problem...."gotta go, gotta GO!"

You show your compassion and spread Christmas Cheer

As you help to cover just ONE MORE REAR

As darkness falls and the day finally ends

"How was it?" I'm asked....."Well, it ALL DEPENDS!"

A BIG THANK YOU goes out to Jody for truly "Making A Difference" in the lives of others. Instead of thinking what we will GET for Christmas, let's all think of what we will GIVE.

Merry Christmas to all....and to all "let there be LIGHT!"

Update on "Gladys" and Denise:

"WE" enjoyed our first LIVE radio interview with Dr. Flora Brown, California on "Color Your Life Happy." That was fun (Denise was NERVOUS!)

Denise has been busy being a 'mystery patient' ~ making a list and checking it twice! Being an "Undercover Patient©" has it's perks, she has written a new song from one experience. She's also having fun presenting "Motivational Makeovers" for Medical Practices.

Thank you to Crisis Pregnancy Ministry for the invitation to speak for their Christmas Party for staff, families and volunteers. What a wonderful event! The money given to me as an honorarium will be used to purchase presents from the Angel Tree for the less fortunate children.

"Gladys" is looking forward to being the entertainment for Lutheran Chapel's Christmas Party tomorrow. Thank you so much for the opportunities to deliver smiles!

Enjoy today ~
