Surgical Joke

An older gentleman was on the operating table awaiting surgery
and he insisted that his son, a renowned surgeon,perform the operation.
As he was about to get the anesthesia, he asked to speak to his son.
"Yes, Dad , what is it?"
"Don't be nervous, son; do your best, and just remember,
if it doesn't go well, if something happens to me,
your mother is going to come and live with you and your wife...."

    I had some minor outpatient surgery about 5 years ago. I went to the hospital, prepped by a RN, had my IV installed, and the anesthesiologist came in as they do to help put me at ease. He jokingly said that he had some great drugs for me. I asked what one and he responded "propofol". I asked if that wasn't the drug that killed the country's most famous child molester. His whole demeanor changed and said that it would have very controlled conditions. I felt kind of bad and when I woke up an hour later he was there. I told him that I was joking like he was. He was cool with it.
    It's too late for me, save yourself.

    Prior to surgery I met with my anesthesiologist. I jokingly asked him "So- you're they guy that is going to put me to sleep?"

    He said "No- I'm the guy that makes sure we can wake you up again."

    Got a dose of propofol for a colonoscopy. I was out for 22 minutes. Best six hours of sleep I ever got.

    Gentlemen All - many thanks for sharing your hospital/anesthesiologist experiences. I too have been there - done that (multiple times) - got the tee shirt. The most notable being when I had a ruptured appendix that wasn't correctly diagnosed for several days as the appendix ran around behind the intestines. When I came around I was going into shock and my cookies were pulled out of the fire by the anesthesiologist. He checked on me every time he came in and also just before he left the hospital during my stay. Best Regards - AQH

    1. Propofol is good stuff - worked well on me anyway

    2. Regrettably it occurred to me during targeted radiation therapy that my fantasy about nakedness and attractive nurses was a long way from the reality of my circumstances

    3. Don't think I have been gassed just infused and or injected

    4. While it's good to wake up - the cease the unplugged unconscious state following surgery I have never enjoyed the sensations or sensory experience

    5. Nurses seem to be divided into 2 basic groups - young petite and eminently nailably attractive or a combination of your mother and nurse ratchet
