Anaesthesia and Pain

[skischool]

I received a charming little pamphlet.entitled 'Anaesthesia & pain' from my local hospital today prior to my imminent Hernia operation.I quote

"Deaths caused by anaesthesia are very rare.There are probably about five deaths for every million anaesthetics in the UK".

Given that the odds of winner the National Lottery are about 14 million to 1 that now means i have more chance of dying on the operating table than winning the Lottery.

Sobering reading.Not to worry Scruffy will inherit my entire estate.So there is a good side to every story.

Happy days my Lung challenged Compadre's.........................skis and scruffy cat xx

Bye, bye Hearny. I'll get the caravan ready for when you recover. I'm sure Scruffy and Midge will get along fine.

Ant,no my friend i live near Oldham,it would be such a shame for Southport,Blackpool get all the money but i assume that's because it is all based on tourism funding?

I went to hospital on Wednesday for review from my mastectomy under local end June reports good and all being well go back next September. That night I went to my weekly visit to bingo with my sister in law and was discussing the good news when a lady walked past I recognised and said I used to work with you over 40 years ago at the old Asda Store, you during the day, me evenings and Saturday. You must be about the same age as me then she said. When I told her I was 75 she said bloo....y hell I will be 91 next February. Congratulated her how well she seemed before it dawned on me she thought I was around 90. Couldn't stop laughing after she went by. Good job I've still got a sense of humour.

keeping well bracing myself for the flu season soon be here, saw the oxygen nurse yesterday a big chance of coming off the concentrator. Last surgery was done was a local and seeing it was circumcision I just laid on my back and let them get on with it. My laugh was with the theatre staff as I was wheeled in I just popped my head up and said morning all a few were startled.
