Today at The Ear Clinic we were treated to something a little different!
One of our patients, read us a poem he had written about his experience here. It was brilliantly put together, and much appreciated by the team.
IT JUST ISN’T WORKING AS IT SHOULD.
I’ve put it off for weeks now, don’t want to make that call.
Sometimes it was functional, then it wouldn’t work at all.
I came up with excuses, pretending all was good.
But deep inside I knew it wasn’t working as it should.
I tried my luck on Google, and several men’s health sites
It really had me worried and gave me sleepless nights.
Advice it was aplenty, olive oil or Vaseline, but this happens as the years pass and I’m no longer eighteen.
But I knew if I was ever to get a good result, I’d have to make the dreaded call, an expert to consult.
I summoned up the courage and hoped I could explain
That even though it’s buggered I wasn’t in any pain.
Machines were all around me as I sat in the chair and told her the left one was good, but the right did not compare.
She had a look, took pictures said I had nothing to fear, put a thing inside, which made some noise.
And now my ear is clear.
