A review of Live a Little
“A husband and
wife in Beijing exchanged organs in a 19-hour
operation... Husband Wang received wife’s
Hou's female parts, and wife Hou received
Wang's male organs in a true scenario of Hou
Wanged Who?”
Funny? Yes — and
best of all, it's true. Award-winning speaker
Barb Bancroft, RN, MSN, PNP, has collected the
odd, the bizarre and the downright hysterical
(which comes from the Greek word for uterus,
by the way) in this wild and wacky volume of
medical trivia. And you will laugh until you
cry reading this book.
Did you know
that vibrators were among the first home
appliances that used electricity? Apparently
the Victorians weren’t quite as boring in the
bedroom as we’ve been lead to believe. But
everyone should be especially careful around
the bedroom: a 412-pound woman once fell out
of bed, hit her head, knocked herself
unconscious, and suffocated when her enormous
breasts fell across her nose and mouth.
Another deadly bedroom fact: a middle-aged man
is more likely to die of a heart attack while
in the arms of younger lover — particularly
one who happens not to be his wife or regular
companion. (Wives: you’ll want to be sure to
mention this fact frequently to your spouse.)
