A head nurse in the hospital received a call: "could you tell me the condition of Mr. Smith in room 405. He was operated upon last week and I would like to know how he is."
The nurse checked the record and the chart and replied, "His condition is excellent and he seems to be making a steady improvement. Who shall I say called?."
The voice replied: "This is Mr. Smith in room 405. My doctors don't tell me a thing!"
"His condition is excellent and he seems to be making a steady improvement. Who shall I say called?."
Is it correct if I report the sentence above as follows?
The nurse replied his condition was excellent and that he seemed to be making a steady improvement. Then she wondered who called.
