There is no humor like Medical humor

[GreatGazoo]

High pressure, high stakes jobs. They need to let loose sometimes. This guy is well known to many in the medical industry and some credit him with keeping them sane -- this may seem ironic after you see how cray he gets.

1. My daughter is undergoing chemo for breast cancer

She sent me a “who wore it best?”

Picture of her, Patrick Stewart, and Jason Alexander.

Sometimes, you just have to laugh.

3. So glad you chose to share these videos. ZDoggMD is astonishing!

He'll be remembered a very long time by many, no doubt about it.

Thank you, GreatGazoo!

4. These are masterful.

I'm a now retired NP. I particularly laughed at the part in the "poo" video about him being able to eat dinner while working. I can watch a very bloody documentary about facial plastic surgery, where they peel the face down off the skull in order to do major bone reconstruction, while eating dinner, and not turn a hair.

Put on something about bugs and I'm outta there.

6. Back when I worked in Medicare claims, I went to various hospitals to review medical records

The nurses would give me their lists of weird stuff the doctors put in their notes; some of them made me laugh so hard I cried. Those lists are filed somewhere in my house and I do not think I will ever get rid of them

If I ever find it I will post some on DU

7. We had an actual diagnosis. FLK...Funny Looking Kid

Now, it wasn't a "billable" diagnosis, but it was in the charts.

8. I used to work with transplant nurses and techs.

They were some of the saltiest people I've ever met and also the most caring.

Whenever they got called in the middle of the night it always represented the culmination of some great tragedy. I suppose humor is one way to deal with that. It also represented hope.

Occasionally I was the one carrying the cooler from the operating room to the helicopter or ambulance. I never liked to think much about what was in the box or how it got there.
