# Just Before Surgery

A short conversation in the last minutes before a rhinoplasty: nerves, the “dream form” and a promise kept. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Ozan Balık.

18 May 2021[Blog](https://www.ozanbalik.com/en/blog/)

– Are you ready?

– I don't know (you smile).

– **Still nervous?**

– No, they gave me a medicine, I think it relaxed me.

– **Yes, it's like being tipsy; the good part is you don't have to tip the bartender.**

– :) Sounds nice.

– **Have you said goodbye to your nose? You won't see it again 🙂**

– I hope it turns out nice 🙂

– **Don't worry, there's no reason for it not to. Did you fill in the dream form?**

– The what?

– **The dream form… You tick what kind of dream you'd like to have, and they give the anaesthetic accordingly.**

– I didn't fill in anything. But I think you're joking 🙂

– **Not at all. Wait and see, we'll choose for you 🙂**

– Will I remember all this?

– **I don't think so. That's why I'll write it down later and post it on Facebook, you can read it there.**

– Don't write my name, though…

– **I won't.**

– Then how will I know it was our conversation?

– **When you read it, your subconscious will whisper it to you.**

– I won't like or share it, though…

– **That's fine, I'll have kept my promise.**

– OK 🙂 I think we're starting, will you hold my hand?

– **Of course 🙂 See you after surgery, sleep well now 🙂**

*(I kept my promise.)*
