i’m so scared what does this even do

My daughter caught the surgical team marking her right knee when the surgery was scheduled for her left. ACL repair, pretty routine. She's on the table, already sedated but still conscious. Surgeon comes in with a marker to indicate the surgical site. Starts drawing on her right knee. My daughter, groggy but aware: "That's the wrong knee." Surgeon looks up. "What?" "Left knee. ACL tear is in my left knee." Surgeon checks the chart. Confusion on his face. Checks again. "The consent form says right knee." My daughter tries to sit up against the restraints. "The consent form is wrong. The MRI, the physical therapy, everything has been for my LEFT knee." Nurse jumps in, checking the computer. "Doctor, the imaging is all left knee. The PT notes say left. The orthopedic consult says left." Surgeon looks at the consent form again. "But you signed this saying right knee." "Because I trusted you to give me the right form! My LEFT knee is the one that's injured!" Room goes quiet. Anesthesiologist stops prep. Everyone's looking at each other. Surgeon finally calls timeout. "Let me verify the imaging." Takes fifteen minutes. Comes back. "You're correct. The consent form was filled out wrong. We'll need to redo the paperwork." My daughter refused to proceed that day. Made them reschedule, triple-check everything, and have the orthopedic surgeon who did her initial consult verify before she'd come back. Surgery happened two weeks later. Different surgical team. She made them show her the imaging and consent form before allowing any sedation. Got a call from hospital risk management apologizing for the "clerical error." Clerical error. They almost operated on the wrong body part. She left a detailed review. Hospital never publicly responded.

昨日は高崎駅構内の「神津牧場」で、食べたかったゴールドバターソフトを食べてきました。 澄ましバターの鍋にジャージーミルクソフトをどぷんと漬ける、なんとも罪深いスイーツ。表面パリパリになったバターが不思議な食感で、そのままでもおいしいソフトクリームが大変危険な味わいに……！

Excuse me, my Noggers… I am pleased to report that Christmas Milk isn’t just for Christmas anymore! 😍 Christmas Milk is now Halloween Milk, too! 🎃 Bless it!

Brian Bromberg is a jazz virtuoso who once recorded an entire album of Jimi Hendrix on bass, that's the level we're talking about. Here he is unloading on "Bass Face" with his Unapologetically Funky Bombastic Band. Watch what he does with four strings.
