Good morning Tara, we have three new patients coming down to our unit today.
Geez, that's a lot. Why are they all coming?
We have a woman getting her breast biopsied, a male getting colon cancer surgery, and a woman having a procedure for advanced hemorrhoids.
It's going to be a long day, better get at it.
Yeah me too, is it the end of my shift yet..?
No, I don't think so. Just ready for this to be over with.
Hi, Joe! The OR is going to be ready for you in about five minutes. Tara and I will be right by your side during the whole procedure. Is there any questions you have for either of us?
Good work Tara! I'm sorry but we have an emergency procedure we'll be adding onto our schedule today. You're going to have to stay longer than planned.
Oh my gosh! You've got to be kidding me. That procedure was already gross enough.
Terrible, I had a disgusting colon surgery today in a guy's rectum. We couldn't get the scope up right away so we had to keep trying. His name was Joe Miller, I think you know him.
How was work today hun? I see you're getting home later then usual.
There was lots of hair follicles and the smell was horrible during the surgery. He was just so gross. I can't wait to tell Barb so we can laugh and make fun of him.
Oh yeah the name does sound familiar. It doesn't surprise me that you thought that. I'm sorry you had a bad day.
