Dinner Conversation

I'm sorry but I have to share this... We are eating dinner and Hiroko told me about one of her patients today...

Hiroko is an ENT nurse (no she doesn't treat trees in Middle Earth) and today she had a really smelly patient.

The patient complained of something in her ear that seemed to be moving for TWO DAYS. Finally it stopped moving but she was having trouble hearing.

The doctor and Hiroko dug out what was in the woman's ear and it came out in bits and pieces: A leg, an antenna, another leg, etc. finally they succeeded in pulling out the entire body (in bits and pieces) of a 2cm cockroach!

She told me that this is her third experience with this kind of living thing in people's ears.... But I don't want to hear any more as we are having dinner at the moment...

Enjoy your day... If you can with that image running through your mind....

*gag*

  1. It would fit right in on a couple of ER stories on TV......

    Have you ever watched Untold Stories of the ER?
