I was in the middle of drawing blood on a patient, when suddenly I felt the urge to fart.
Normally, I stand with my legs a little bit apart when drawing a patient. So, in order to prevent the humiliating release of that unwanted internal air, I had to change the angle of my legs (smaller angle) so I could squeeze my butt cheeks.
Fortunately, the odds were in my favor! Phew!! It was indeed a close call!
