So one I've got is from my last surgery. Before the surgery I was looking for a small cactus to keep as I tend to kill plants that need actual care. My mom and I had also been joking that I might wake up looking like those accident victims in comedies with their arms casted in a waving poisition with a stick to prop it against their bodies.
Sooo....I wake up from surgery to find my arm IS up and out in a "waving" position, though I have a brace not a cast. First thing my mom does is make fun of me. Thanks mom
Then she wants to show me the cactus she found for me at the Home Depot. She does this by holding it directly over my face. All I could think was, please don't drop it. Then, the next day she sits on the couch with a ledge behind her where the cactus is sitting, leans her head back and gets the cactus caught in her hair. I couldn't even get up to help her. Took her about 15min to get it out. I almost had to get the nurse.
Fortunately mom got to keep all of her hair and my cactus only has a small "naked patch" where the needles were ripped out
