Tonsils
At the tender age of 9 I had to get my tonsils out. Scary enough at that age, but was well looked after, and as it was close to Christmas Santa was good to me that year.

The reason I'm writing though, as I was wheeled into the operating theatre there were a number of people standing watching, who crowded round me as I was being told to breath through a big mask and count down from ten. To me they were all adults, but thinking back they must have been medical students.

Just as I started going under I felt a weird pressure on my leg and the last thing I heard before going out completely, was,

"Hey, don't lean on the patient."
