FUNNIES IN ICU:
Dave has a wonderful
sense of humor and quick wit. Even full
of morphine, he cracks Katy up. She says
it’s a gift for her right now. With her
permission I share these. She wouldn’t
let me tell you the BEST one though!
Katy: I’ll be just
down the hall in a sleep room, Honey.
Want me to wheel your bed down later?
Dave: Aww, Katy.
I just wanna’ try to be a good, Christian man.
(OK that one WAS the morphine talking and not Dave’s usual reaction!)
When his brother, Joel, walked
into his room, he grabbed his gown at the lapel and spoke into his imaginary
walkie talkie: “Security! Security to ICU.”
When she told him Joel was coming, he said, “Tell him the
gynecologist will be in later.”
Joel didn’t get it until Katy asked, “A gynochologist?” Dave was ahead of them all!
When
he tried to get up, his bed beeped loudly.
He immediately reacted, “Testing. Testing. Testing.”
Katy had to tell him several times that first day that he’d
had a seizure. He didn’t remember it nor
being told at first. When he finally
realized it, the next day he said,
“I’m thinking about having another seizure. It’s nice to get so much sleep.”
Nurse: “I bet it is with 6
kids.”
Dave told the doc something about a MASH episode and the doc
laughed and came right back with a Star Trek reference. Then the doc said, “I had my own episode
operating on a man named Jesu. . .on CHRISTMAS DAY!” Truth is stranger than fiction.
When
told, “You’re going to have a spinal tap here soon. We’ll roll you over on your side.”
David
sarcastically replied, “I’m looking forward to it.”
