For me, Once after being mugged, I had to get 8 hour head surgery. Could have died. The last thing I said to the surgeon before they applied anesthetic: "Cut as little hair as possible." The first thing I said when I came out of the anesthia to the surgeon who asked how I felt, I said: "I hear a ticking inside my head...Weren't you wearing a watch before the surgery?"

That's good!
I'd probably say Hi everyone, am I still alive?
Then I'd moan because it either hurt or I was still half out.
One time I had outpatient surgery and since I was in the medical field I knew if you take deep breaths you get more oxygen into your blood and wake up sooner. So I was laying on the cart taking big deep breaths and the nurses came over and asked me if I was ok. I told them and they said just relax you don't have to do that. I guess they thought I was having a heart attack or something.

Absolutely Amazing!!! I mean, the surgeon who could take the 'VANITY' out and replace it with sense of 'HUMOUR', is an absolute GENIUS. And all this within 8 hours!!!
(How vain is the person who knew he could die on the table and still 'cared' to look good in the coffin!!! You owe it to the good surgeon in more ways than one, you really do!!!).

Our youngest son, when he was 17 years old, was mugged too. [it was 10:00 at night] He was a block away from our home, and he was approached by 2 men who took his mp3 player from him and then took him down a dark alley to a lobby of a building...they then demanded him to give them his bank card and his pin number...our son co-operated. As one of them took his bank card to an ATM machine, as he did that, the other man while his hand was in his pocket [as if to disguise a weapon] grabbed our son by the throat and shoved him up against the wall [which hurt the back of HIS head], and he told him to do everything they say or he'll get hurt. When the other guy came back, he threw our son's bank card at him and said that there was nothing in his account....but they let him go. If only I took my German Shepherd/part rottweiler dog down the street at that time, this would not have occurred, because everybody is afraid of our dog, especially adults for some reason. She would have protected our son, like the night I went out with her at midnight and a man got too close to me and my dog barked and lunged at him.
If I came back to life, I would say "Please put me out of my misery."

So you awoke, presuming time was in your control, mentally?

The fallen angel Azazel causes people to sing the same tune throughout the movie "Fallen" starring Denzel Washington.
Funny, when we are sedated, time is of no essence... We could be asleep for days, and it seem like a short period of time. The ticking that you heard could have been psychological in nature or side effects from the sedatory drugs.
My words would be... Where is my husband and family... They are supposed to be @ bedside? If my husband isn't there I would panic! (MSA- MLB)

A friend of mine had a car accident when he was a young man. The last thing he remembered laying on the ice of the harbour, laid out, thrown from the car, was the cracking of the ice from afar.
As he was coming out of his coma, days later, a doctor said to him, very slowly and distinctly. 'You've ... been... in... a... car... ac-ci-dent." To which my friend replied, slowly and distinctly... " no... sh**" (he has a sarcastic sense of humour).
I'd say "Live, from New York... it's Saturday Night!"
or "I'm going to Disneyworld!"
Peace

That's a good one. I would make some small talk to try to reassure everyone. Or maybe I would demand a sandwich of some kind.

Is there any way to get rid of this smell of rotting flesh? Or must I be zip locked for all eternity.
