I checked it in Snopes and is a legend, passed around with various scenarios. Saw this in FB and had to share. Hope you got a chuckle out of it. :)

My Mum is always going on about her "senior moments" but add a 'V' and an 'E' in a strategic place and she goes on about those too!! Must be old age - I'll be doing the same soon LOL!; February 2, 2012 7:34:00 PM EST

SeaSpray said...: Yes - I remember that post. It still gets a lot of hits. :) Glad to know you liked it and I'm sure your mom will get a chuckle too. :); February 3, 2012 4:05:00 AM EST
SeaSpray said...: Hi Ramona - glad you got a kick out of it too. I can just picture it. :); February 3, 2012 4:07:00 AM EST
Kay Dennison said...: Wayyyyyyyyyyyy funny!!! Actually, it sounds like something I'd do on one of my Senior moment days. LOL Fortunately, they don't happen too often and hopefully, if the new member of my legion of doctors helps, those moments will dwindle.

Thanks for visiting my place. It's nice to see a sane conservative. Do stop by anytime. I'm adding you to my list!; February 3, 2012 3:01:00 PM EST
SeaSpray said...: Hi Kay - I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)

Ha ha... "sane conservative" ...maybe I am ...and maybe ... ;)

maybe you saw my long comment by now, but I am sending warn thoughts and prayers your way. {{{Kay}}} You will have a good outcome. Sounds like the way they were on the ball scheduling it was meant to be and now it will be taken care of.

Thank you for your kind words link. :); February 3, 2012 3:39:00 PM EST

I appreciate the positive affirmations from my fellow bloggers & their terrific blogs! :)

Sandman (anesthesiologist) made my day with this comment:

This post is a masterpiece and should be required reading for everyone (even non-medical staff) in the OR.
The loss of control is a very important issue. I usually try to put the patient at ease and give them some control back with light humor: I ask what movie they would like to watch during the "flight".

Dr Bruce Campbell, author of the Reflections in a Head Mirror blog said"SeaSpray, an eloquent patient-blogger, writes about the final moments before surgery. She writes, "I do believe it ... but there is always that ... last glance around the room or up to the ceiling, knowing that I am right then ... at that moment in time ... surrendering my mind and body to them." Powerful stuff. "

Some kind words from WhiteCoat, one of my favorite ED docs. He made this girl smile. :)

"Thanks for another point of view.
You can write novellas on my blog any time you want, SeaSpray."

And from his new blog locale "WhiteCoat's Call Room" in "Emergency Physicians Monthly":

"Novellas? Type away.
Liked your post about the holidays, BTW."

This warmed my heart...from another favorite ED doc, Scalpel. :)

"Seaspray, that comment was awesome. Thanks!"

Scalpel also said: "Seaspray, I like your comments and I'm always sad when you delete them."

The following comment was in response to a l-o-n-g political comment I left at Urologist Keagirl's blog. I appreciate the support. :)

Dominic A. Carone, Ph.D. (made my day :) in response to my post, "The Conflicted Patient", Which I wrote as a guest blogger for his MedFriendly blog::

"Wow. I thought that was absolutely terrific. What an experience. It is a topic that has long been of interest to me: when the health care provider becomes the patient. If you have not seen the movie "The Doctor" which covers this exact topic, you have to rent it. I posted the entry. Feel free to link to it. Thanks so much for your invaluable contribution!"

The following is Mer's review of my guest post "The Conflicted Patient" that I wrote for the Medfriendly blog -Nov. 07.

"seaspray

I read your article and passed it on to some other blogs. It's extremely well done. You demonstrate how important communication is in healthcare, and why it's necessary that healthcare providers take the lead in opening up communication with their patients."

Comment response from blogging friend John from "Full on Forward":

"Sea- WOW! You are now my Attorney. I had thought of some of these but I had never thought about a lot of them. You have put together an extremely valuable, logical case. You should write a pamphlet to post!"

The Independent Urologist ..another favorite blogger:

"Excellent. You know what we say about urine. It is the champagne of body fluids."

(Of course I have to have some mention of urine in here:)

And last, but certainly not least..from another favorite *past* blogging ED Doc.. (Trench Doc - who ALWAYS cracks me up) a comment from him that makes me smile every time I see it"

"You can tell this is me you nutty secret blogger..." :)

P.S. ...I take being called "nutty" by Trenchy as a compliment. :)

Concepts that amuse me ;)

Guilding the Lily

Time

The Throckmorton Salad bar test!

Kegeling patient vs Doctor in Tug-of-War for the speculum.

Laughing cat - I'm pretty sure if cats secretly laugh under their expressionless faces...that he (my cat) was at the other end of the house ROTFLHAO! ;)

Whizzie winkles! ~Scrubs euphemism for urine.
SeaSpray believes they're feminine, pretty and sparkle.

Pee Goal!

Meat as an opiate to lure my husband (it would be to him) into going out for a Christmas tree. ;) ~ Next year I should have a pot roast braising on the stove and the moment he walks in the door... lift the lid and let the site of the meat pleasure his eyes while the aroma wafting up toward him sedates him like an opiate and THEN remind him we are going to get the tree now and we will come back to have this pot roast AFTER we get the tree home and in the stand.
