Yoga Workout - Learn How To Do Yoga

Tales from the O.R, Vol.1...

Stuck at the hospital on weekend call today. One of my patients was an 83 year old lady who was getting her gallbladder removed. As I was doing my pre-anesthetic interview with her, she noticed the Yoda scrub hat I was wearing.

I gave her my spiel about what I was going to do, what to expect with the anesthesia, etc. Trying to allay any anxiety she might be feeling, I told her it was a simple surgery and that it shouldn’t be too exciting.

She smiled a weird little smile and said, “Adventure? heh. Excitement? heh. A Jedi craves not these things.” As I stood there at a loss for words, she wistfully said, “My grandchildren and I used to watch The Empire Strikes Back every weekend and play like we were Jedi - about 30 years ago.”

“Just ignore me”, she said, “I saw your cap and thought you would laugh.”

As I was staring at her blankly, I said the first thing that came into my head -“You are the coolest old lady I’ve ever met.” Not the most politically correct or polite thing to say, but I just opened my mouth and out it came. She laughed and put me at ease. I told her I had a lightsaber app on my iPhone and she asked to see it. I showed her how to use it, and she lay there swinging my phone around, smiling. 

It has been the highlight of my day so far. I swear, since I have been working as a nurse anesthetist, the weirdest, coolest stuff seems to happen to me. I feel really good about the anesthetic I gave her, too. As I was pushing my induction drugs, I said in my best Yoda voice, “Go to sleep you will. Good dreams you will have.” She starting laughing as she drifted off to sleep, and it was a pretty darn good feeling. 

Now all I hope is that I can get home at a decent hour so I can hit the gym. Two weeks ago I would have been wondering what they were serving in the cafeteria. I guess that’s progress…

Skittles and Chase having a moment.
