The Car Guy was still in the hospital after his Motorcycle Accident when our daughter, The Nurse, gave her dad this Lego Surgeon. If you look very carefully at the x-ray in the Surgeon’s hand, you might see what is wrong with the patient.
We decided the x-ray showed a rib fracture, though if you turn the x-ray upside down, it might be a break in the clavicle. Since The Car Guy had both – rib fractures and a broken clavicle – the x-ray was fairly accurate!
What an ingenious ‘interpretation’ for this week’s photo challenge. I used to love Lego when I was a kid. 🙂

Those Lego surgeons are quite astute, although that instrument looks like something from Star Wars. Glad things are healing nicely.

We decided the instrument was a syringe – very big syringe!

I’m not sure what’s in his right hand, but my first thought was “Is that a rolling pin?” Silly me. That must be wrong…

Rolling pin, syringe – both would give the same result, perhaps.

Nicely done! How do toy makers come up with these things? 🙂

I particularly like the fact that Lego chose to make a female surgeon, don’t you!?

How cute! Hope Car Guy feels better soon! Sounds painful.
By the way, I love your header image with the Strider bike in the rack with the adult bikes. Our daughter LOVES her strider and, yes, we have a bike rack in the backyard where hers sits alongside our much bigger bikes.

Thanks Caryn.
The Strider belongs to my nephews young son, and I thought it was so cute when it got parked next to the big bikes that the grand children use when they are at the cabin.

How can you tell it’s a she? The eyes?

Yes, the eyes, plus the LEGO website which says: “Nothing distracts the ever-serious Surgeon when she’s performing an important operation.”

Aha! I couldn’t discern anything specifically female about the surgeon. I wondered what the answer to that would be. Now I have my answer.

If you look at the x-ray sideways, it might be a broken thermo-coupler link for a Tardis, which would explain why the ‘Doctor’ has a sonic screwdriver…. (Only nerds will get this joke, but that doen’t mean it isn’t funny)…

A sonic screwdriver makes more sense than a syringe, actually.

Oh… a safety syringe… so kids don’t get poked… I get it now.

I think I know where the nurse– your daughter– gets her sense of humor from. And from what you’ve written about the Car Guy, I’d say your daughter also knows the right approach to take with her dad… : )
Hope CG’s doing well, ditto yourself and all the concerned clan.
