Mr. Smith was brought to Mercy Hospital (a Catholic hospital),and taken quickly in for coronary surgery. The operation wentwell and, as the groggy man regained consciousness, he wasreassured by a Sister of Mercy, who was waiting by his bed."Mr. Smith, you're going to be just fine," said the nun, gentlypatting his hand. "We do need to know, however, how you intend topay for your stay here. Are you covered by insurance?""No, I'm not," the man whispered hoarsely."Then can you pay in cash?" persisted the nun."I'm afraid I cannot, Sister.""Well, do you have any close relatives?" the nun questionedsternly."Just my sister in New Mexico," he volunteered. "But she's ahumble spinster nun.""Oh, I must correct you, Mr. Smith. Nuns are not spinsters - they are married to God.""Wonderful," said Mr. Smith. "In that case, please send the bill to my brother-in -law."
