"Twilight" anesthesia? Can't say I've ever heard of it.

What sort of surgery are you having, may I ask? Would some sort of local anesthetic be an option in this case?

Ah...thanks for the link! Doesn't sound nearly as scary as I initially thought.

Sounds like something I should keep in mind should the need for surgery ever arise.
