Crazy Nurse Belle 1978
Old rancher Bill didn't care for his eyes after cataract surgery. They became infected, which required hospitalization, since his wife had died and he had no one to care for and/or nag him. After a day in the hospital and driving all the nurses crazy with his constant ringing the buzzer, complaining about something, the doctor gave him discharge, but he refused to leave saying his pain was unbearable and he had no one to care for him. The doctor granted him another day.
The nurses going off shift, warned Nurse Belle, that this old kook was going to give her problems,. Nurse Belle, being an avid horse breeder and part time contract cowgirl, took a proactive stance as she entered the room. She slapped her hands together with a resounding whack! "Got the little bastard," she exclaimed. After whacking more invisible flying bugs, she stomped her foot hard. "You should have seen the size of that crawler and it was a new hatch!"
Rancher Bill was becoming uneasy, but Nurse Belle remained focused and calm, killing invaders off the walls and in mid air. "Where do these bugs get in," he asked?
"Oh, they don't get in this secure facility, they are from eggs laid in hidden places from 17 years ago. They hatch every 17 years and today is hatching day. Luckily they are all confined to this room," Nurse Belle calmly explained. "It is a mystery, but our maintenance people have put chemical barriers at your door to stop any spread. "
Rancher Bill said he was feeling better and ready to go for the walk he had refused to take earlier. After the walk he refused to return to his room. He sat in the waiting room until the doctor made his rounds and he was granted an instance discharge.
Later he told other ranchers at a Grange meeting, that he didn't believe the bug story for one second, but he did believe Nurse Belle was insane and possibly dangerous.
