puffing away
The last couple of days when I have been visiting my mum at the hospital, I have noticed an old lady in a hospital gown standing at the side entrance smoking away.
It annoys me for 2 reasons:
1. she’s smoking in a non smoking area
2. she clearly is wasting the hospitals resources in fixing/saving her from whatever it is that she has by smoking. Frankly there are many more people who need treatment for something or other and wouldn’t be polluting their lungs with such rubbish.
On one particular day, everytime I went downstairs (which happened on a frequent basis), this lady was out there smoking away.
Seriously, what the heck.
All I do is give her the death stare.
my dad says “maybe she’s on her last leg… and wants to enjoy her ciggies”
last leg- people who are in hospital usually arent able to get up and walk a mile for a ciggie, they’re usually hooked up to IVs and looking very dire.
