I Just Might Have Kobe's Baby Someday...


My patients never cease to provide me with a chuckle. Here is the latest of funny stories....
I was rounding on my 85 year old lady yesterday morning who I had operated on about 10 ago and who had been very sick. She had been in the ICU and gotten very confused and delerious, however that was now all resolved and she was close to going home. It was about 5:45Am yesterday morning when I went into her room to examine her.


Patient: "Turn on the Laker Game. I think it is just about to start."
Megan: "The game doesn't start until this evening, it is still morning. Are you a Lake fan?"
Patient: "Oh yes, I love the Lakers. I never miss a game."
Megan: "Who is your favorite player on the team?"
Patient: "Oh I love Kobe, he is definitely my favorite. I just might have his baby someday."


Well, I guess if an 85 year old lady can still aspire to having babies there is still hope for me and Todd...

Well I know this is going to disgust my family, but over the past couple years I have developed a bit of a love-hate relationship on Kobe. He is certainly not MJ, Charles Barkley, Steve Nash, etc...but boy do I love to watch Kobe play, even if I don't love him off the court! I was lucky enough to sit five rows back from the visitors bench when he played here in Portland a few weeks back. He is incredible. But I still don't like the Lakers!
