staples - and not the business people

Today's happy place Looking at my guts!
Today's Theme Song Criminal Mind - Gowan
A funny thing justice served
Kiwi's Kitten Campaign kitties sometimes like guts too (but then it's gross)

Today at the hospital I got an X RAY amoungst some other fun things. Quite frankly, it was just too damn long since last poked and prodded....

I had my appendix out (the REDUX in 2006, see archives) and SWORE that whilst in recovery, the surgeon informed me that I had titanium staples.......however, with the morphine I was given, apparently my ears and memory were not to be trusted.

Today however, was the day of JUSTICE! My XRAY showed THIRTEEN staples. Not 4. Not 5. Not 10. I DID hear correctly!!! Morphine did NOT cloud my judgement. The surgeon was INCORRECT when, at my post surgery follow up appointment, he assured me that I had NO staples. WRONG he was! WRONG. 13 beauties just "hanging out" . I'm so glad I asked Mr XRAY technician if I could look at my XRAY. Besides, who doesn't want to see their own guts?

Just goes to show ya.......even though I had just come out of surgery, stoned out of my tree, ....I KNOW what I hear!!!! I could feel those little staples and unlike the Business Depot, it was NOT easy! but now I know why setting off alarms going INTO stores is!
