So I had a heart ultrasound today. The lovely young tech had to do the exam over my sore ribs and pneumonia ‘backed’ up by the flank pain, as if I was in arbitration and she needed to bring us all together as one…
It was uncomfortable but right in the middle I started to sing, in my head, a song from church…only with altered lyrics. (Disclaimer: no disrespect intended)
Up from the ashes ultrasound will arrive
Comfort is defeated, the image is alive
Push a little harder
In the presence of my doctor’s order
Push a little harder
Harder than I know I should
Push a little harder
My weapon is my ultrasound probe
Push a little harder
Until my patient starts to fight me with me
I’m gonna push in the middle of the test
Harder and harder,
you’re gonna hear my patients roar.
Push a little harder….
At least I’m expanding my use of ridiculous, I may be feeling better.
Smiling,
Ridiculous Anne
