Heart

Nobody in the medical profession had ever seen anything like it.

Experts from around the world attended the patient, most of them out of sheer curiosity. The patient, an otherwise healthy male in his thirties, welcomed the attention on the basis that it was exactly what he wanted. It was creating a worldwide audience that would in time understand the message he was trying to get across. What was not immediately apparent was the fact that the patient, had a tiny speaker tucked in beside his blood-pumping organ. With the use of the latest nanotechnology, customised Bluetooth, and a couple of other things, he was able to have a song in his heart.

The room that the patient occupied was packed with all kinds of medical specialists. They took it in turns to place their stethoscopes on the man’s chest and listen to something more than a heartbeat. When they had all listened and were standing around conferring with each other, they all slowly became aware of the movement in the bed.

The patient raised his hand.

The closest doctors standing either side of the bed leant over the man

The man in the bed whispered, “There’s a song in my heart.”

“What did he say?” asked the other specialist.

“He said, there’s a song in my heart.”

“He’s right,” said the orderly, standing in the corner.

Someone said, “What?”

“It’s Perry Como, singing, ‘They can’t take that away from me.’”

This whole idea, as set out above, is either a completely fanciful notion or a really good idea…
