Your XML is not actually xml. You have image tag, but patient_2 is not within any tag.

The post was a mess. But the XML was there... hidden in translation. :)

Learn using XPath - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms256115(v=vs.110).aspx[^]

C#

XmlNode node = doc.DocumentElement.SelectsingleNode("toast/text");

Good solution. Just a note: if every such node is needed, use XmlNodeList and doc.DocumentElement.SelectNodes(xpath)
