I had a non-cancerous tumor that ate the bone up there from the inside out... they had to wait till I stopped growing and than fixed it. I don't have many funny stories from coming off of being knocked out... mostly because I get really really sick from it, however the last time they had it under control enough to where I did not get sick for a couple hours after my scope so when a cute doctor/ med student walked by I said " He is cute, he can come to my beside anytime!" The person who was with me said she was glad that part of me was still working. :) Also the passed out pudding picture is so funny! Kudios to you for posing it!

Glad you came through OK. Now, for the fun, right? Anesthesia stories and behavior are fabulous. When I woke from my wisdom tooth surgery in high school, I apparently hit on the doctor, cracked up all the way to the car, and then got home and cried about a teddy bear before passing out for like a day. After Zilla's C-section, so I'm told, I woke up swearing like a drunken sailor and then got upset that my Mother In Law might hear me swearing in such a manner and started swearing about that. I have no conscious recollection of this. Ah, good times...<br />I have to ask, though, because I think I have clearly missed something...why the "Yes" written by you on your leg?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329563580023354380.post-33666361361478006332014-07-11T14:51:16.562-04:002014-07-11T14:51:16.562-04:00Glad you liked it.
