Hey, I Remember You!

So, I wake up post surgery and am greeted by the team of surgeons who worked on me. Unfortunately, I still look like me and not Angelina :) Anyways, one of the surgeons asks me how I am feeling and if I can remember what day it is.

I turned to him and said “I feel great and this is the best day of my life!” Then I continued “And hey, I remember you...before I blanked out in there, I remember you and the chainsaw in your hands!” *lol* I thought I would make him laugh. But there was no inkling of a smile on his face. In fact, he said “Ms. Nanwani, that observation was incorrect. As per the hospital procedures, a chainsaw is not considered an instrument of medicine. And given that we performed a discectomy on you, there is no instrument even resembling a chain saw that was used during your surgery”.

What do you say to a response like that? Of course there was a chainsaw, but I think it was up your......

I think I have watched too many medical drams with cute doctors with a great sense of humour: ER, Grey’s Anatomy, Scrubs, etc. Sorry gals, not all doctors are like McDreamy or McSteamy...*sigh*
