Comments of the day:
- Mc Murphy seems to be leading a revolution. He has challenged nurse Pilbow and it seems that other patients are taking his example. To avoid further manoeuvres, tomorrow an assembly will take place, at 6.am, to determine which stance the hospital must adopt to cease Mc Murphy’s actions.
- If patient Mr. Taber still spurns the medication assigned to him, Dr. Spivey will have to resort to force.
- New system of alphabetic order at the bathrooms seems to be working correctly.
Suggestions:
- Isolotate patient Mc Murphy from others patients (until a new decision at the assembly tomorrow is adopted.)
- Give more work to the black boys to avoid further complications.
