letter I wrote way back after I had surgery

Dear Philip and Family,

I’m being held prisoner at our Lady of Great Agony. :eek:
The medical staff is very entertaining.
And they told me that they'll feed me dinner once I quit bitching
and complaining.

All the doctors hate the aides.
And the nurses do nightly raids.
And my surgeon wants no sissies.
So he reads to his patients from something called Ulysses.

Now I don't want this to scare you
But my roommate developed diptheria.
Do you remember Dr. Barardi?
They still haven't located his patient's missing body.

Take me home, Oh PLEASE dear honey. Take me home, this isn't FUNNY.
Don't LEAVE me here without any clean underwear.
Please take me home. I promise I'll let you watch tv shows of your choice.
Oh please don't make me stay, I've been here ONE WHOLE DAY!!

Dearest family, DARLING PHILIP, how is Ella, my little peanut?
Let me come home. I KNOW YOU MISS ME. I will even let your great Aunt Lena hug and kiss me.

Wait a minute!! There's no wailing. Patients aren't screaming and they're not bailing. Time FOR HAPPY MEDS. :D:D GEE THAT’S BETTER.

PHILIP AND FAMILY KINDLY DISREGARD THIS LETTER.

Love,

Gutless Wonder

love it! :D

i remember writing one to my sister from my hospital bed, complaining that they'd brought me pizza to eat, despite being told by the dietician 'no melted cheese'. funny how these things were so important back then, that we remember them even now!
