tomorrow morning is the Cataract Surgery
yes, i know cataract surgery is a snap a cinch and a breeze
it is the most common out-patient surgery performed over the whole Planet
it still gives me the creeps
today the nurse at the pre-op said they would give me anesthesia to keep me still and so i wont leap out of the chair but i will be lying down flat / ugh / she said she had been a nurse for thirty years and that they used to surround the patient's head with bags of cement to keep the head still / um / so i told her that our second president's (John Adams) daughter had a mastectomy without anesthesia
that shut us both up
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
did she really say "bags of cement" ?
