Not transmissible in this comic: The feeling of the anaesthetic creeping up your arm from the injection site.

Been there, done that.

And whatever they gave me wasn't like this comic. I felt it creep up my neck towards my brain and then it was immediately lights out. Pretty sure I took the opportunity to say "goodbye" right before that. Might have been "goodnight".

The waking up was very much a struggle though, so if there'd been a sadistic anaesthetist on the ward, that second going to sleep might have been more like panels two and four.
