Dead end Job

Weird News:"Around the year 1500"s - Old England is and small and the local folks started running out of places to bury people. So they would dig up coffins and would take the bones to a "bone-house" and reuse the grave. When reopening these coffins, 1 out of 25 coffins were found to have scratch marks on the inside and they realized they had been burying people alive. So they thought they would tie a string on the wrist of the corpse, lead it through the coffin and up through the ground and tie it to a bell. Someone would have to sit out in the graveyard all night (the "graveyard shift") to listen for the bell; thus, someone could be "saved by the bell" or was considered a "dead ringer." And that's the truth. . . (who ever said that History was boring)?" Now how would you to have to do this job? Talk about watching the dead, I've worked in some pretty dead in jobs. But never one this bad."

Surgery Follow-up

Hello everyone... Well it's been a week since my surgery went to see the Doctor, for my follow-up. He said I would live but, won't feel like it for another 30-days because of all the repairs he had to make in my ear. I have to go back in 3-weeks to have a hearing test done and also take out some more stitches, till then I now have to put these steroid drops in every two hours or 6 times a-day, to help the healing part also the drops help clean out the packing they put in stuff, they have in my ear to protect it till its all healed also said I would not hear much of anything till all the packing is out, and the tissue has healed which is normal according to him. What they did to my ear. Doctor said: Replaced the ear bone with a dead person's bone...Yuck! Did some repairs on a nerve called ( the 5th. Carnal nerve). And scraped a lot of scar tissue damage away from everything and then took a skin Graff of my muscle tissue and flatten it and made a ear drum out of it, to sew in place of the damage one. A lot of work done to a little ear huh. Well I hope it was all worth it in the end, guess I will just have to wait and see, wait that's hear..LOL Any way, wanted to thank all of you who sent me e-mail greeting of (get well cards) meant a lot to me, never knew I had so many friends...Thanks Debi
P.S....Word of warning I got a ear ache in the middle of the summer, and look what happen to me so if you get one don't mess around get to a Ear,Nose,throat- Doctor right away. I didn't I went to a family clinic and look what happen to.
