SMS Texting Gets a Kids Hand Chopped Off ……
Special thanks to intlxpatr for the butterfly award nomination. I think I got into blogging because I was bored and figured it’d help me kill some time. I’m glad people enjoy reading what I write and hope to continue to impress. I think I’l nominate the following:
Plastic(sorry, I know you hate this type of thing),
L’s Brain (I don’t know how to do that symbol thing …. apologies)
MAR of Alhamour.com
Please let us know how/why you got into blogging etc …… brevity would be appreciated …..
Well not exactly …. Dr David Nott who is currently working with/for/under Medicin Sans Frontiers (or doctors without borders) in the Congo was faced with more than he bargained for when a hippo crushed a young lads arm (when I say arm, I mean all the way upto the shoulders), he had to try and perform a very difficult amupatation which involves the shoulder blades (it’s called an upper limb dis-articulation) and the fact the he had never done it before made matters even worse.The boy would have to face a slow and painful death from the gangrene he would develop as days went by ……
But thanks to modern technology and all the of the fruits it bears the good doctor managed to get a friend of his to send him a 10 step for dummies guide via SMS. The kids is now doing very well all thanks to the fine efforts of telecoms companies around the globe (bar zain and wataniya ofcourse, who can’t even get caller ID turned off for gods sake).
Oh well I guess it’ll only be a matter of time before kuwaiti doctors end up sending SMS’s to the bengali at the door with clear instructions on how to treat their patients (with Adol/cough syrup/ventolin/multivitamins/cortisone) while they bask in their shaleh, home or apartment they keep for that thing they have going on the side………………
Greetings everyone and welcome to Kill.thatdamnpatient.com. A collection of drivel for which I sincerely apologize. Please keep the hate mail to the minimum and note that the whole damn thing is tagged NSFW and not for anybody under the age of 18 (or in the case of the immature-majority under 25). The whole thing is supposed to be funny and very much tongue in cheek so no need for tears people.

shwaish: don’t blame her. Incidentally, I believe that open MRI machines have been around in most hospitals for a while now. Dar Al Shifa (I believe they prefer that way of spelling it) just flaunts theirs more than other …… it’s a guy thing I suppose …..
