...I ever read in a patient's medical record
A lizard was present at the patient's resuscitation. Blurry squirrels will emergently take patient to the OR.
I have no idea what the doctor meant to write in his note. I'm quite certain it wasn't this. But, if it was, I love him.
Pretty sure, though, that what actually happened is he dictated it and then didn't go back, read and correct it. I kept waiting all day for him to do that, and then change it. And I'm quite happy that, as I leave tonight, it still reads as above. Because, I mean really, who wouldn't want that in his/her medical record?!
Today's Lesson: Sometimes you find the most unexpected things in the most expected places. Like a lizard, or blurry squirrels, in the emergency department. Or at least a good laugh in a medical chart.

Oh, my. Thanks for the giggle. I needed that.
Who knows, maybe he's actually Beatrix Potter M.D.
