Good Vibrations

A short humorous story about a discussion be tween a patient and his surgeon on operation procedures.

I went to the doctor's the other day to have an operation set up to fix a lower hernia I have acquired from heavy lifting at work. The surgeon told me that during the procedure he might have to cut a nerve in my leg if it causes a problems when He puts in the mesh to repair the hernia. He tells me by cutting this nerve I might loose some feeling on the right side of my marble bag, nothing important.

So I tell the surgeon I would if possible like for him not to take or leave anything in my body that is not crucial for the success of my operation procedure.

So I tell the surgeon ( knowing how mentally distracted everyone is today) ," During the Operation ,please don't leave your chewing gum,or surgical tools inside me!"

"But it's OK if you leave your cellphone in side me, as long as it's on vibration mode and you are a popular Guy!! "
