    *Ralph and Edna were both patients  in a mental hospital. One day
    while they were  walking past the hospital swimming pool *, *Ralph
      suddenly **
    jumped into the deep end. _

    He sank to the bottom of the pool and  stayed there. _

    Edna promptly jumped in  to save him. She swam to the bottom and
    pulled him  out. When the Head Nurse Director became aware of
      Edna's heroic act she immediately ordered her to  be discharged
    from the hospital, as she now  considered her to be mentally stable.

    When  she went to tell Edna the news she said, 'Edna, I have good
    news and bad news. The good  news is you're being discharged, since
    you were  able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping  in and
    saving the life of the person you love... I  have concluded that
    your act displays sound  mindedness.

    The bad news is, Ralph hung  himself in the bathroom with his
    bathrobe belt  right after you saved him. I am so sorry, but he's
      dead.'

    Edna replied, 'He didn't hang  himself, I put him there to dry..

    How soon  can I go home?'


    Happy Mental Health  Day!


    You can do your bit by  remembering to send an email to an unstable
      friend...


    I've done my  part!!*
