Had a really nice appointment with the ear specialist today....I knew from the hearing test just before I saw the gorgeous specialist with the Irish lilt that I was either very deaf or the machines weren't working.
Gorgeous looked in my ears with a gadget it would be helpful for GPs to have and declared.....

My god....both ears completely blocked....consent form nurse. Here we are...just sign and give us permission to do anything we like while you're under....
Some minutes passed...

Gorgeous: Come on..stop dithering...I want my pen back.

Me: Just hold on, sunshine........I'm thinking.

Gorgeous: About?

Me: Dying under the anaesthetic. It's a bit worrying...

Gorgeous: Stop worrying....if you die I'm the one lumbered with all the paper work and an inquiry....you'll know nothing about it if you're dead.

Me: How do you know that.....no-one knows what happens when we die.

Gorgeous: Hmmm...good point...you still won't have the paper work though.

Me: If I sign can I fly while I'm waiting?

Gorgeous: Not on your own....that would be dangerous.

Me: In an aeroplane I mean?

Gorgeous: Where are you going?

Me: Knock, Ireland.

Gorgeous: That's a bit extreme....the operation's not so risky you have to go to Knock to pray beforehand.

Me: I don't pray...well I might start though. I'm going for a music festival.

Gorgeous: Why? You can't hear anything. Go on, sign....there's nothing to it.

Me: That's okay to say from your end.

Gorgeous: It'll only be my end if your luck's in and I operate....☺

I liked him.....♥....but I still don't want the procedure....:-(

[Sqad]

LOL...for Christ's sake it is only a drainage procedure with or without Gromit insertions AND you would still be able to fly.

[Psybbo]

A MIRACLE WILL HAPPEN IN KNOCK

[ummmm]

Do you like typing, Gness? I would have said 'both ears are blocked and I need a minor op' :-)

[jno]

Gromit insertions? Have you told Gromit?

[sandyRoe]

will Wallace be agreeable and sign the consent form?

[Sqad]

jno.....LOL...he wouldn't object.......the size of an ear canal would be appropriate for him........;-)

[gness]

Ahj...but you're quite dull, Ummmm...never seem to see the humour in life at all.....☺

[Baldric]

What is Gromit going to insert?

[jim360]

"Gorgeous"... but I wasn't there! *confused*

[gness]

Sqad...he is putting in gromits unless I can get a miracle at Knock and do you know how many people die in hospitals?...☺

Wallace came with me today....he signed too.....quisling!

[Slapshot]

"Gorgeous: It'll only be my end if your luck's in and I operate....☺ "

hmmmmmm

[jno]

how many people die after visiting Knock?

[gness]

We shall see, Baldric.....

Hey, Slappy....do you think I finally pulled and didn't notice?...Bums!!

Jim...you were there in spirit....☺

Everyone, Jno...but not on site....x

[joggerjayne]

I want to know what happened to the pen.

[gness]

Oooo...I'll look in my handbag, JJ....they usually have quite nice pens do consultants....and I like a nice pen.....☺

[ummmm]

I see plenty of humour in life. Maybe I see too much humour and that's why some stories are completely lost on me...because they just aren't funny :-)

[gness]

My mistake then....it's just that you come across on AB as someone for whom life holds little in the way of joy and humour to share.....but if that's not so good for you.........☺

[woofgang]

well i thought it was funny :)

[gness]

Woof...it was a lovely and funny appointment...not for everyone I know but my sense of humour is dark....and it helps when you are facing your possible demise.....☻

Please be thoughtful of those who may not share your 'dark' soh and also are awaiting an operation.

Just because a post appears in CB does not guarantee it will be read by all like-minded people ☺
