It's their victims that die young. An old nurse once told me a story about a very mean, nasty, patient he cared for who was terminally ill with cancer. The man was supposed to die at any moment when my friend left for vacation. When my nurse friend returned, the mean man was gone. Assuming that he died, my friend asked the details of his death. To his surprise, he was told that the man had suddenly gotten better and was discharged to his home. The staff figured that the man was so mean that God didn't want him - and neither did the devil. ----- God bless Mary Ann
