Coprolalia

Coprolalia Dr Emil at the cottage hospital had a problem he was not aware of; he had worked in bigger hospitals but fired for being rude to patients. Dr Emil was a good doctor and a kind man the staff The hospital accepted his quirks. as did the patients and in the small town regarded as lovable eccentric. Doing his morning round, he said to an old patient “Does he never die, the ing old fart?” “What is the old over there doing in my ward.” Chuckles from beds Dr Emil continued like nothing had happened unaware of what was coming out of his mouth? One day the inspector of hospitals came around the staff did their best to keep Emil away from her, he met her In the hall; the greetings were pleasant until he said she was “an out- ed old whore.” The offended lady was not willing to forget Dr Emil was fired; the town lost a good man. Our Emil got a job in Mongolia no one speaks English It doesn’t matter what he says.
