Be Hip & Share This With A Friend

Nobody likes getting a catheter. I was assured that it wasn’t a big deal and this  ‘little’ procedure would be done as soon as I was ‘out.’

The last thing I remember after my spinal, is seeing a nurse taking a long tube of rubberish hosing and holding from her chest to her outstretched arm, much like my grandmother used to do as she measured cloth at the fabric store. And with that, I was gone…

What has changed?

Well, before my catheter:

Animals would be terrified…

Children would flee…

Women would gasp…

Men would cheer!

There probably is no correlation between the usage of a catheter during surgery and strength of my urination stream, but… here is my story.

Environmental critics called me a deforestation threat as I could cut down an entire swath of bamboo trees, effortlessly.
