I had to share this one.
Consultation this morning. 80-odd year old brought by family because
not looking after herself.
<Thinks> .... Time for a mini mental state.
She coped OK until we got to serial 7's when she didn't appear to
understand the question. In an attempt to make the issue clearer I
said "If you go into a shop and buy something costing seven pence and
you give them one pound, how much change do you get?"
Quick as you like the answer came back - "Nineteen and fivepence"
Case closed.
