Cecil and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital.

One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool and Cecil 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 Cecil 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.

She went to tell Edna the news, "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 another patient, I have concluded that your act displays sound-mindedness. The bad news is Cecil hanged himself with his bathrobe belt, in the bathroom, 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?
