The worst place to be if you are sick is in an Italian hospital.

Probably not such a good place to be if yo are well either.

And this from the children's ward

Hey lady, make your head do that funny spinning thing again!!!

Back in 1977, I was suffering unbearable pain from a herniated disc. The agony was so intense that I couldn’t even handle a ride from my apartment in Rome to the Naval Hospital in Naples. I went into a small clinic in Rome where the orthopedic surgeon performed a laminectomy on my spine. Haven’t had a bit of a problem since, and that’s with a lot of pounding from running and walking. The clinic was in the shadow of the Policlinico Gemelli, where the popes are taken for treatment. It’s not the middle ages anymore.
