Worth a gander if you have an hour - because you won't be able to stop reading!

The multipal use condom "as long as you wash it between uses" made me laugh.
Haven't read all yet though.
Good find.

I've had patients relatives ask why we weren't offering a brain transplant to their brain stem dead relatives. Obvviously, these people are in the deapths of despair at the time, but even so!

Yep that's on the list further down!

My favourite was from the vet that had an old lady trying to remove ticks from her dog with tweezers and failing. He had to tell her those were the poor dogs nipples, and that she had a very well behaved and patient dog

They should have offered their own, must be worth a fortune as they'd obviously never been used.

I was just blown away by some of the stupidity there.

A friend of mine nearly had an uncessary operation one time, because during his stay in hospital he was asked every day whether he'd had a bowel movement. Having never heard the expression, but vaguely knowing that your bowels were 'down there somewhere', and not having felt anything moving, he said no. After a week they were considering operating to find out what was going on, till he told his visiting mum, who said words to the effect, you bleedin' numpty...they're asking if you've had a shoot. Crisis over.

There are some funny tales, but the really grim ones were starting to get me down so I have stopped reading now!

 

[Flying_Monkey]

Yeah, most of them are just sad.

[omg I read this. I can't breath

My mother is a nurse, and has been for over 25 years. The only story of her's that makes me sick is the story of a man who could not afford Viagra. So he reasoned his caulk gun should do the trick, right? It'd stay in there and keep him hard. So he put the tip of the gun in his urethra and filled himself up. Long story short, don't do that. Don't, for Christ's farking sake, ever do anything even remotely like that.

I am no longer going to look at this thread. I have had to walk away from the computer for 5 mins to get that image out of my head.
