Joke of the day – Surgery

Things you don’t want to hear during surgery:

…”Everyone stand back, I think I lost my contact lens.”

…”Someone call the janitor, we’re going to need a mop and a bucket.”

…”Sterile, schmerile; at lest the operating-room floor is clean.”

…”Hey, that’s cool! Now can you make his leg twitch?”

…”Nurse, did this patient sign the organ-donor card?”

    • You got a point there but it also depends on the type of surgery. My friend who had a c-section said she’s conscious throughout the procedure and there’s no sensation from waist down 😦

      • True – I had a string of surgeries in a short period of time and the last one, the ‘relaxant’ they give you in pre-op wore off and I awoke in the surgery room – what an eerie place –
        I was looking around and trying to get my bearings – when I heard, “Oh- – look who’s awake!”
        Then they ran the formula through, which, undiluted, makes your arm feel like it’s on fire and I went under cussing a blue streak –
        At my post-op appointment, my surgeon said they delayed surgery, because one of the nurses was laughing so hard, she cried and he told me,
        “But it’s okay – I told them you were married to a sailor.”

      • Yes, I just quit going to the doctor when I realized that I didn’t have very many non-essential parts left in my torso – LOL 🙂
        Seriously, I had a great doctor and it was just a cluster of bad luck to have had so many so close together – but I do understand why they give you the pre-op dose – surgery rooms induce one word thoughts, like “Frankenstein” – 😀
