The patient had no recollection of any memory loss.

While in the emergency room, she was examined, x-rated, and sent home.

The patient states that diarrhea tends to run in his family.

I've authorized two more trips to the chiropractor to help finish him off.

The shoulder dislocation was relocated in the emergency room.

The patient called saying her neck was increasing in size where we took it off.

Since the patient stopped smoking, his smell is beginning to return.

The patient was side-swiped by a car riding a motorcycle.

Both her old and new noses have been placed in our album.

Three bullets were removed from the patient...one from each leg.

For the last three weeks, his nose has been running pretty much non-stop. It is running down the back of his throat.

At first I thought those sentences might have been written by some of the semi literates here, but most of the words are spelled correctly so it could not have been them.

Actually, these excerpts were copied and printed exactly as written in medical records obtained from an article in a publication. Any semi-literates would have been the medical professionals who entered them into their records. :wink:

BTW, which words were misspelled :?:

I know the difference in your and you're. Apparently you do not.

There are semi literate professionals in the medical profession. I suspect however that some or most of the stuff you posted was perhaps t***scribed by clerks.

Regardless of that, you supplied some laughs, which are needed in this age. Thanks

Speaking of semi-literate:
I think you mean "You're" for your are. "Your" means belonging to.
I think you mean "semi"-literate, "semi" meaning partially
And "lititerate"? well, I can't even guess
In four words you have told us everything we need to know about you.

Thought this was a fun-time to enter these guidelines....

"Do not put statements in the negative form.

And don't start sentences with a conjunction.

If you reread your work, you will find on rereading that a great deal of repetition can be avoided by rereading and editing.

Never use a long word when a diminutive one will do.

Unqualified superlatives are the worst of all.

Deaccession euphemisms.

If any word is improper at the end of a sentence, a linking verb is.

Avoid trendy locutions that sound flaky.

Last, but not least, avoid cliches like the plague."

~William Safire, "Great Rules of Writing." :mrgreen:

People are who, things are that.

That is a good one. I am sometimes guilty.

Have you ever heard the old adage, "Hoist by your own petard?" I didn't think so. I have to give credit where credit is due; you did spell "the" correctly.

Since you cannot form a sentence correctly, nor spell accurately, you're the semi-illiterate.
