Laughter . . . Not Always the Best Medicine

Laughing and humor have been a large part of my life for a long time. Whether listening to a joke or saying the first thing that pops into my head, I find myself smiling . . . and sometimes others do as well.

A number of years ago my secretary went into the hospital to have an operation. While she was recovering in her room the next day, I thought I would go up to see her. Already in the room were several of her friends. We laughed and giggled a little. However, this would cause her pain and she would hold a pillow to her stomach and go, "Ooo! Ooo!"

The anesthesiologist walks into the room, introduces himself to her and asks:

"Do you have any questions for me?"

"No, I don't think so."

"Are you having any side effects from the anesthesia?"

"I don't think so. But my lower lip does hurt."

"Sometimes while a patient is under anesthesia, people bite on their lower lips."

This is where I make an unfortunate interjection. "Then I do not ever want to go under anesthesia if people are going to be biting on my lip!"

The entire room broke out into a riotous laughter with my secretary holding onto her pillow going, "Ooo! Ooo! Ooo! Ooo!" Well, except for the anesthesiologist. He is busy giving me the death stare.

I quickly excuse myself and leave the room to the howls of laughter.

Even down the hall I could still hear her. "Ooo! Ooo! Ooo! Ooo!"
