399　Who is the patient? 谁是病人？

Hospital regulations require a wheelchair for patients being discharged. When I pushed a wheelchair to the ward, I found a gentleman already dressed and sitting on the bed with a suitcase at his feet. He insisted he didn't need my help to leave the hospital. After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me wheel him to the elevator. On the way down I asked if his wife was meeting him. “I don't know,” he said. “She's still upstairs in the bathroom changing out of her hospital gown.”

医院的规定要求用轮椅送病人出院。当我推着轮椅到病房的时候，看见一位男士已经穿好衣服坐在床上，脚边放着一个小提箱。他坚持说他不需要我的帮助就可以离开医院。我对他说规定就是规定。他勉强让我用轮椅推他上电梯。在下楼的时候我问他，他太太会不会来接他。他说：“我不知道。她还在楼上厕所里换她的病号服呢。”
