If u have never had the opportunity to view this video on YouTube it's a must do. Go to the website, search "amateur transplants" and then select the "Anaesthetists Hymn Live." For those of u who might have problems, let me share the lyrics....(set of the music of "Total Eclipse of the Heart").....

Everybody wonders what anesthetists do while the patient is asleep,

Everybody wonders what we do for 3 hours while that machine goes

beep,

Everybody reckons we drink coffee and we gossip and we're generally

subversive,

Everybody reckons we do crosswords and sudoku and we chat up all

the nurses,

But do you really think that's all we do?

Well let me tell you now it isn't true,

Cause we sometimes check the screen,

And every now and then we write stuff,

And if we have to intervene, we inject a bit of white stuff,

And we offer to alter the lights, or the height of the bed, or fiddle

with the radio or change the CD

We even check the patient occassionally,

And if they move we turn up the vapor,

And then we go back to reading the paper,

Cause when the patients asleep we just sit and listen to the beep, we

just sit and listen to the.......

Once upon a time I took pride in my job,

Now I think it's time to depart,

Cause I just sit here everyday and listen to the blips of the heart.

FYI: also check out the Amateur Transplants songs: "Drugs Song", "Your Baby", and the "NHS Song". "Careless Surgeon" is ok too but not as funny as the others!

It's good to know that someone can find humor in this field! It's only fitting since we are all going through such TORTURE trying to get into school!
