Scalpel's Edge

A surgeon's notes

I love my job

Yesterday, I told two patients they don’t have cancer.

Today, I told one guy that we’d cured his cancer to the best of our knowledge.

Today, I unkinked someone’s bowel so they can eat again.

Yesterday, I made a beautiful stoma.  By myself.

This week, I stood up for myself and got a good result.

On Wednesday, I made the ED doctors smile.

 

You wish you had a job as cool as mine.
