My dreams

"Scalpel!Forceps! Can I get suture to arrest this bleeding Please?!"
"Doc how are the patients vitals?Can we proceed ?"
"Doc the patient is getting hypotensive ,let's hurry up"
"Am about to close the sheath. We shall be done soon "
This is part of the usual conversation in the Operating room.  I can not  say that most of the times the surgeries become dramatic with bleeders or other   bodly fluids gushing out .
Some days are quiet ,surgeries are done as we talk about events happening around us .
Surgeons are heroes in scrubs . Most people  might not recognise them because they usually do the deed while the patients are unaware . Surgeons  stand for several hours without bathroom breaks or snack break until the procedure is done .
Once  a patient is placed on the table   it does not become about  you anymore ,it's all about the patient's life and the Operating rooms  sterility.There is that relief that comes once you scrub out and the patient is off to the recovery room .
In brief , Surgeons are heroes and  Gladiators in scrubs!
