Our patient awakens finally !

How are you my dear ?
slept well I take it ?

Oh ! Silly me you're gagged that's right
ah well , nevermind answering then eh
little girls should be seen but not heard right !

Now I suppose you'd be wondering at this precise moment
how did I get here ?
of course we're not talking about mummies and daddys
you know what I mean ?

Well I can clarify that easily enough
last night I offered to buy you an alcoholic beverage
at the bar , remember ....
silly girl never take candy from strangers
you should know that
it could get you in all sorts of trouble

There ! I can see the recognition slowly sleep in
that particular drug will remain in your system
for at least another few hours
I concocted it myself actually !
too clever aren't I !

He ! He !

Come , come , don't cry !
after all tears are just for babies
not grown ups like yourself
you're old enough to know better
and anyhow it's a sign of weakness
and so unbecoming !
you wouldn't want me to think you're unattractive ....
would you !
that wouldn't be very pleasant for either of us
I can assure you !

Now , tell me
have you ever been inside a hospital ?
remember that smell of fresh anaesthetic !
quite unique , unmistakable really
it's all around us as we speak
I've faithfully recreacted the atmosphere
don't you agree ?
So many fond memories
how they all come flooding back
nostalgia ! It's so poignant
those where the good old days

But I waver so
I do hope you'll forgive the digression
this mind is somewhat impaired by age
not as clearly focused as perhaps it once was ....

The hip bones connected to the neck bone !
oh forgive me my bedside manner isn't what it used to be
and I can tell we agree my vocals are just atrocious
yes it's a crime I know
I never was much good at holding a note ....

Sorry , off with the fairies again ...
Now where were we ?
I rememeber , let me check here
it appears all the tools of the trade are prept and in order
sterilisation is extremely important in an operating theatre !
the last thing you'd want is some nasty germ getting inside
and infecting your patient
never can be to careful these days
what with malpractice suits and the like
you're not the suing type are you ?

Should a germ get under your skin it can be most discomforting !
See that rhymed , you where supposed to laugh !
Young people these days , no sense of humour !
All work and no play
you should follow my example
I always schedule time for recreation

This will be the first implement we'll discover
such a superb instrument
a sharp scalpel is the surgeons best friend !
look here !
See how easily it breaks the skin
remind me to change the drip if it runs too low ok
through the layers , next stop ....

How rude !
you've passed out
and they say women have a higher pain threshold than men ?
I suppose I'll just have to stitch you back up
we can always try again tomorrow
I'd just hate for you to miss me showcasing my skills !

The youth of today , honestly , no fortitude
such weak constitutions !

Why the last client I had in didn't even last pass
a routine appendectomy
and she was at least a year younger than you !

Anyway there's a good girl
enjoy your slumber time
best to get a full nights rest
you'll need all your strength for our next session
why , perhaps we might even use some anaesthetic !
Although I do so abhor such weakness !
my moto of late being 'keep it real !'
such a befitting saying too !

I'll turn the light off on the way out
so as not to waste electricity
its supposed to be good for the enviornment
and we don't want to appear ill-informed
as to our responsibilities to society !

I do so hope you're not afraid of the dark
it can get absolutely solid pitch in here at night ....

Oh well , I won't tarry any longer
I have an important dinner meeting with the senator
he wants some ideas on how to improve the health system
from an expert like me of course !
and I do so hate rushing to get ready

Sweet dreams !
and don't let those big bed bugs bite !
