There was a postop patient on our floor whose doctor wouldn't allow us to feed her until she passed gas. She was getting quite peckish but not having any luck. She made herself a sign to hold up when anyone came in the room "Will Fart for Food".

Don't know where I was April-ish and missed this post, but this made me laugh out loud.

Glad to see that this was the winner of the contest
