Scalpel's Edge

A surgeon's notes

2008 Scalpels, sitting on a wall

I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried.
I’ve had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that;
And may I say – not in a shy way,
No, oh no not me,
I did it my way.
(Frank Sinatra)

I started this blog this year, as a place where I could be myself – no niche, no advertising, no guilt and no pressure. And I have enjoyed myself. I have posted on medicine, health, being a doctor, and lots of irrelevancies. I am enjoying myself. I like to kid myself that no one is listening to my disconnected rants, but some people are. Some of my more popular posts (in terms of comments) were those where I was cranky, depressed or lost.

People who are new to this blog might like to see what went on this year, so here are Google’s greatest hits, and my favourites:
