Thanks Luke for sharing my story. While writing it I didn't even think about the possibility that you may want to make it public. For me it was a bit of a therapy. Writing it helped me to get better from what I had suffered only 1 week ago. Also it was my genuine desire of just saying "thank you". These days some of my friends have listened to the episode and they were shocked when they realized how much I suffered. I think that when I told them (while having a beer) it didn't sound that bad... Maybe I didn't tell them the rougher parts. Thanks!!
Thank you for letting me read it out Iñaki. It’s a terrifying story and I’m very glad you made a full recovery.
?.😊.😂?
Iñaki, your English is good!!!
Hello. I'm from Ukraine. We live in a safe region. We do not have hostilities, but missiles are aimed at the energy infrastructure. In recent weeks, there is often no light for four hours several times a day. Power engineers are offloading electricity consumption. Then there is no Internet either. I download your videos when there is light and watch them when it goes out Your videos are made in a very high-quality and understandable manner, although my level of English is not very high. It was my hobby in the past, and now, during the war, it came back to fill my brain with something good and interesting and to get out of this stress and unreality of events. Thank you very much for your work.
Are you still alive? How your english now?
Hi Luke. Thanks from Ukraine. Listening for the stories on your podcast gives me a short moment of going from reality just to normal, carefree life. Your podcast really helps to keep mentally. Reality of our country since russian invasia is like a nightmare. We witnessed awful atrocites and are full of pain. You can't wake up, no matter how to try, the only option is to study how to live with it. Wishing you the peaceful sky over your head, keep on doing your job 🙌
I am the one of LEP Ninjas from İstanbul/ Turkey. I realy enjoy your podcast and learn a lot of things about English. Thank you🎉🎉🎉❤
Hi! I'm a ninjia😂....till now, actually. I'm an italian woman of 49 years, I listen to you while cleaning my house, just because I like english very much. I use to read english books (all of Ken Follett's), so I can understand 98%, but I realized I did't know the correct pronunciation ....so, I found you...thanks a lot
Fascinating story! I agree that your voice is very calming and it somehow gives us positive, energetic state of mind! Thank you Luke, lots of blessings!
Awesome presentation.. And incredible performance. There is something mysterious and power on your voice. I was hypnotized. Thanks lot.
Hello Luke. I live in Canada. I recently found your KZhead page and since then I listen to it everyday while going to work and coming back, even on my breaks. The amazing thing about your work is that It never gets boring , because of the way you narrate and the choice of stories. I enjoy each and every story. Thank you for the great great work. I’m so glad I found you. T❤
Oh, you live in Canada? I have always had the doubt of what kind of English is spoken there, I suppose it's similar to the american but maybe the use of French changes it, I don't know. I will travel to Canada for a cultural exchange next year, it is amusing to think that people in different countries listen to the same thing thanks to LIP.
Luke, my name is Marianna Ho. I now live in Belgium with my family. Originally, I live in Hong Kong. My husband and I visited my son and his family in Belgium 3 years ago. Due to the pandemic we stayed here and finally get our residency. I started listening to your Podcast about 6 months ago. I realise the more I listen to your program the more I love it as it covered a wide range of knowledge which I find it very interesting. Most important is you invite guest speakers to talk in your Podcast like your father and they are very good and funny. Thanks again your program not only helps us to improve our English but open up our knowledge as well,
Luke ! Look at yourself ! The ENGLISH Healing doctor! You got the gift ! You have such a smooth voice! And your English pronunciation great . I have taken my dose today! Thanks from México City
I am a new here, so happy that I've found this amazing teacher
It's an amazing story. It's so great to find how a person could influence another, how one could comfort another and make a difference in an unexpected way. Well done, Luke. 👏 👍
I'm so proud to be the part of the LEP!!! 🔥🥳
Very Goodevening Luke I am one of your ninjas who always listen to your podcast silently. I am learning and improving my English through your Podcast and always increase my vocabulary by watching your podcast . Your podcast is very helpful for English learners like me I really enjoy listening your podcast on your KZhead channel and story time is the best part of your channel I have just heard the story you shared today It’s really very compelling and remind eme of my daughter’s surgery. She used to wear braces , after sometime when her dentist realised that her braces are not working properly They did an ex-ray of hee mouth and decided to do the surgery and move her jaw by operation and fix it with screws It all went well and my daughter’s jaws was adjusted perfectly after the surgery You are a very dedicated teacher and I wish if you would be my English teacher then I would be able to learn English faster and quicker I will be very grateful if you could add more stories. In my opinion learning English through stories and from teacher like you will be more helpful for all the English learners like me Thankyou for doing so amazing job Really appreciate all the hard work you are doing through your teaching expertise
I’m not LEP Ninja any more 😂! I enjoy your teaching. I’m blind, pretty old (58) ”mama” from Finland. At school I (9 year old) was too lazy to learn English🥴, because I thought, I do not never need it🙄. But now I have British son-in-low 🥰! And now I really NEED English language😅. I have LEP Premium and it’s really good, thank you❣️. But you see, I have much to learn yet, but I’ll try hard💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼🤭!
Hello 👋 how can I contact with you please? I've some questions
Your are wonderful woman whose I have ever seen.
Thanks from Algeria. I'm really improving my English since I started following you on KZhead. I practice "shadowing" when listening to you on my way to work (driving) and while cooking. You're a great teacher, Luke, thank you so much!
Yeah, I can relate. Not like I’ve had a bad trip in a hospital, but I also find listening to LEP comforting and somehow therapeutic because it reminds me of so many great days in the past.
Hi Luke! I was a little disturbed by the story, but I managed to go to the end, also because you said there would be a happy ending. The voice definetely has a healing power. I like the expression "once in a blue moon" Thank you for sharing this story. Ciao from Italy.
Massive thanks, Luke, for sharing this amazing story of recovery. You do bring extremely positive vibes by your stories. I'm new to your account, I've only listened to 'The mountain' and ''The umbrella man' so far, but I'll definitely stick to your channel as I loved immensely everything I've heard. Not only the stories but your presentation of the vocab is incredible. So thanks again and looking forward to your new stories!
What an unbelievable story, Wow! I am glad to have the opportunity of hearing it. Thank you luke for sharing it, you're amazing.❤️ Greetings from Argentina
Hi Luke, Thank You for the great work You have been doing. I ve been looking for a long time for sthg to refresh my English but all I could find was either too fast spoken english or children or old fashioned stories. And as everybody says in the comments each of your podcasts is so interesting so different and on so many contemporary topics even dialiogs with your family and friends. I especially appreciate the trancripts which help me to "catch" new or missing words. Thank you again Luke
Thank you very much for your amazing stories !!! I started following you three month ago. Your podcasts entertain me and at the same time teach me life lessons and ,of course they are the best tools to improve my English!!!
You are really amazing and support teacher . I always connecting your lessons. Thanks
I’m always happy to hear your voice! It was an amazing story, I have learned a lot of new words. Thanks a lot
Nice nice. Your voice has such a magical power, I don't think Iniyaki lied or had made a story, Even your laugh also has a healing power 😊 Any how I'm wishing good health for Iniyaki always
Hi Luke, how is it going? I’d like to say before hearing this terrified story that happened to this friend,I widely believed that apart from those learning issues from your podcasts, your voice and intonation extremely are awesome and make me calm. Thanks a lot and appreciated. God bless you❤
"I am always happy to tell the world any story in which I emerge as the hero!" Nice touch...
Hi Luke! That's true! General anesthesia could cause very mental disorder, specially when it's start to going away! Some people have trouble with psicodélic effects!
My name is Ángel, from Argentina (Rosario) the city which Messi was born. I listen to you every day
The story really amazed me and also inspired me. Your voice, Luke, really has some kind of magical effect and I can’t live a day without your podcast) Thank you so much for your work!
Thank you for your great work, Luce.
Thank you Luke for reading this amazing history. I am a new listener and l relly enjoy it.
Hey Luke, since I started listening to your podcast I always wanted to write you to thank you for your job and say that you podcast is the first one I can hear the whole day or for a long time. Now this story was really interesting and fascinating story for me. Good bless Iñaki and good luck for English learning! I can imagine Iñakis story. You have such a relaxing voice. when I am excited or angry, one thing I can do is listen your podcast and calm down quickly. I can concentrate very quickly. I hope you can understand what I want to say, because my English level is just B1 und I am on the good way to learn and improve it with you. Thanks a lot and greetings from Munich
Hi Marine! Thanks and God bless too!!
Hello dear teacher and best reader,i am trying to learn English my major is Persian literature and i feel so happy when listening to you and learn new grammar and correct pronunciation. Please keep going. Thanks 🙏
Hello, Luke! Thank you so much for your podcast, for those brilliant topics you touch upon! I started watching you quite recently while getting ready for one of the English classes. I've been teaching English at Russian state schools for nearly 6 years. The problem is that we don't get paid well at state schools, and I'm suffering the impostor syndrome as I feel that I'm not a born teacher lacking talent, though I'm a 1st category teacher. Your podcast helps me to relax and feel I'm not alone anyway as a teacher. P.S. I've been to the UK in 2000, being only 16, that was a great experience. I studied at Lancs, Accrington.
OMG!! This was my first time i understood the whole video because before for me was imposible when i was watching your videos, I couldn't understand anyting but today i'm very proud of me and very greatfull with you for your podcast and for you time!!!❤❤❤
You are amazing. Thank you for being you :)
Thanks Luke. I hope you are doing well!! I have been following you for a long time, and I love the way you speak, especially random speech. I am a 65 year old doctor, from Chile. Thanks to your interviews I met Christian Saunders and joined Canguro Academy. We missed you at the last retreat in Gran Canaria. I wish to meet you in person some time, probably in the next retreat! I wish you the best!!! Rosana Baytelman
Hay Luke, i am your new subscriber from Indonesia. Happy to find your channel, your podcast help me to improve my English. Everyday i enjoy your podcast, give me more energy and more confidence.
It is a very good story, it helps to me a lot of medicine vocabulary, and I feel happy that I don’t have that kind of problem . Estela from Argentina

I wanna give big hand for them(Iñaki' and our teacher Luke) and I really appreciate your high quality english content Luke Teacher!!
Hello Luke. I am from Romania and I listen to you with much pleasure. I am a beginner in learning English and I was a LEP Ninja until now. :)) Thank you a lot.
Hi I recently subscribed to your channel. It was the first podcast that I listened to, I enjoyed it, and I'm going to listen to your podcasts. Thank you. Please record more podcast😊
Great story. Real human stories are really touching. It has been a pleasure listening to you. Thanks to Iñaki too for sharing it. Nowadays only few people dare to talk about bad moments in their life.
Listing to this story while walking in the morning 🕊
Hi Luke. I've been a Lep Ninja for a long time, but now I became a Lep. During this time at Lep Ninja I improved my English a lot. Congratulations for this Lep project. Best Regards. Marco from Brazil
Thanks for your podcast its really helpful, and interesting for me 🙏❤️
It's disturbing but it has a happy ending. I agree with him that your voice is really soothing.
I am proud of breaking the news that, by only listening your podcasts for 90 minutes a day for 160 days I managed to pass the English speaking exam. Thank you for your great efforts to teach us Luke. Loves from Turkiye
Thank you for all your excellent lessons!
Hey, luke! I appreciate your podcasts. They help me alot with my pronunciation. Keep up the good work. ❤❤
Luke, nice to see you, very nice to hear you, and much more It's nice to enjoy your narrator's hilarious style. If this was the less. I am learning actual English. Thank you so much.
@Luke you are brilliant. Another amazing podcast. 👍👍👍
Hi! While I was hearing the story I would not think that is about a general anaestethic. Though in December 2022 I survived it myself. It was my first time and it was a disaster. I got conscious after 12 hours. And, I want to say also, Luke, that your podcast is fantastic. I have recommended it to my English teaher and she liked it! Thank you!
Omg!! I did not know there are a lot of people have the same feelings as me! so I will write my story I was exhausted from IELTS and had some problems and stopped listening to your podcast for 2 weeks I come back 2 days ago and suddenly when I hear heard your voice I cried from happiness and laughed!! thank God my little sister was not there, so I found that your podcast means a lot to me it is not just for developing my English language.
hello, did you study Ielts?
Thank you so much Luke from my side. Very interesting podcast. Bravo
Undoubtedly, Luke's voice IS soothing.
Thank you for the episode ❤❤❤
once upon time, I woke up afraid on a voice came out from the window, a few seconds later I realize that my phone was left running on your podcast :)
It’s one of the amazing episodes you have been giving to your followers.👌
Great job! Amazing explanations! Thank you
It was an agreeable story. Thanks teacher Luke for sharing Iñaki's email.
Thank you you make all the stories fun to follow also you make english more intresting to learn.🌼🌻
Normally I listen to your podcast before going to bed. Your podcasts are very interesting and joyful.
Hya Luke, if you are interested, I could enlighten you with a bit of medical background. Sleep apnea occurs if the muscles in your throat are not able to keep your airway open during sleep, especially if you are lying on your back. So usually the surgical solution / therapy is to break the upper jaw and re-position it a bit further in the front. Usually only some millimeters. btw: The palate is exactly what you think it is. It's the top part of your upper jaw. For this operation is in a very sensitive area of your body (i.e. the head), it has to be done in general anesthesia. Listening to Inakis story one might suspect, that he had the induction of his "artificial coma" with a drug called Ketamine. This is a very powerful painkiller / narcotic with the side effect of nightmares, paranoia or hallucinations especially when the effect subsides and the patient comes round. Therefore the anaesthesist usually combines Ketamine with a sedative such as Midazolam or any other benzodiazepine. Maybe... just maybe... Inaki got not enough sedative during his operation to avoid these effects. Just speculating here but to me it seems a very likely explanation. Being a paramedic and nurse I witnessed this "complication" several times when there was not enough sedative.
Thank you. That was very good. I liked the way at the end of the story you gave the meaning of some words . I liked this way
Great to hear, great to learn
The best teacher I have ever seen❤
Thank you Luck, I love all your stories and learn a lot .
Dear Luke This is also a survival story because my husband luckily survived 22 surgeries 10 years ago. I would have been fortunate to have your podcast back then, as I was also going through a difficult time. We are very thankful for what our medical system can provide, even if the doctors don't have much time to talk to you due to the extensive documentation they have to do. My husband spent a long time in the hospital, and because he had so many anesthetics, one of the anesthesiologists came to see him, telling him that he wanted to meet the man who had been on the operating table so many times. We learned that paranoid thoughts often occur after longer surgeries. Once, my husband cried in the recovery room, convinced he had to go to jail because he believed he had embezzled a large amount of money (which was not true, as we are not bankers but brave teachers). Another time, he was convinced he was in a Greek hospital, accusing me of bringing him to a place, where nobody was taking care of him. I don't want to offend anyone from Greece. Greece was probably on his mind because there were a lot of articles about Greece and the EU in the newspapers at the time. Luke, you have a great talent for presenting content in such a way that I look forward to a new (or old) episode every day. It's a brilliant mix of information, food for thought, humour and entertainment through exciting stories and conversations with interesting guests. A thousand thanks !!!
Fascinating comment. Thank you!
Very nice story! Luke, you are wonderful teacher. It is a pleasure to listen to you;)
Hey Luke, The nightmare described in the story looks like a the side effect of anesthesia. Some medication can provoke hallucinations , lasting day or two afterwards. It usually happens when cheep or old-generation drugs are using during prolonged surgeries. The guy just got unfortunate to experience that. It's amazing that your voice and nice manner to talk comforted the patient and diminished the hurmful action of the drug. Thanks for sharing this compelling story.
Hi Luke! Here from Brasil. I begin to listen and see you this very day and I enjoyed a lot this episode and the surgery story. I particularly liked the Beatle's picture on your background wall. I would like to improve my English with you .I hope I can. Thank you. Bye.
Hi Luke, i am one of Ninjas, but i like your lessons very much and it helps a lot. So here is my first contact to you. And my big thanks to you for what you doing
Vielen Dank Luke. Es ist sehr unterhaltsam😊 auf diese Weise english zu lernen.
Amazing Teacher
Thank you!
I really agree with you. You cure our souls
I love the story
Hi Luke, thanks a lot for posting this extraordinary email and warning us about danger of general anesthesia, about this terrible consequences of it. It was really a nightmare for Inyaki and your voice has a healing power. You saved the day! I am glad that Inyaki back to normal again. I love stories with a good ending. I have never had a similar experience, all my operations were under local anesthesia. Your podcast "Fall asleep in English" helps me to deal with insomnia.
Well done 👏
I have survived tbe story. It is exciting and fun altogether.
I sent your pod cast to my sister who is a english teacher. She lived for yesrs in England and she loved to hear your english accent! By for bow José
A similar thing happened to me long time ago when I underwent an operation under the influence of anethesia to fix my broken knee cap.
hi, thanks! Great story! All this is very explainable (this would be the best option for now, if you think about it, to explain it... if you will). The spirit-body separates from our physical body every night when we go to sleep (we are the soul that vitalizes both bodies). So we have a rhythm and habits when we do that every night or every sleep. That is to say, the body-spirit will have its tricks to escape from feeling things, etc.* But in a situation of forced sleep (with drugs, etc.) it is no longer the same as always. And it is known that, when patterns change, we have to face "new" things/emotions. Iñaqui will have been remembering things in his conscious memory ( later, already being in the physical body )... things of the type that we call "vivid dreams", and things that we normally do not (want to) remember when we wake up. That time he would have been remembering them more vividly because of the change of patterns and the forcing that the drugs do, etc. We, in the soul, as a soul... we... usually transform the "real things experienced at night" (when "we are" in the spirit body, or we are as a spirit body) into dreams with varying degrees of memory of what we really did in the spirit-body. In general we usually want to avoid feeling the true state of our soul, both in the dream state as in the waking state. So, we live lifes of avoiding, immersed in a kind of a facade. These dreams of transformation, these "messenger dreams", sometimes "communicate" emotions to us so that we can feel them or feel them again, and thus be able to progress in our emotional (soul) state. ___ * And btw, there always would be people in the spiritual world (people in various degrees of evolution / in various ways of soul evolution...)... people that usually are helping us for better and for worse (that people are there when we are in the dream state as also they are there "helping" us in the waking state.) The "light tunnels" would have to do with that kind of disincarnates/spirits, groups of spirits, "spiritual ways", etc.
Thanks Luke for sharing this interesting story. Answering your question, this one wasn't disturbing for me at all
☺Thank you Luke! This way to improve my English is really funny. I like very much your videos and the way like you reed.
I enjoyed the story so much. Thank you Luke! At the end I felt happy saying the right words in your test bevor you gave the answers, despite you spoke so quickly.... perhaps you wanted this episode takes under 40 minutes??? I ask me if Iñaki's story is really truth .... If it is, I wish him a very good recover! God bless your work, your episodes sind so helpful to learn English. I hope I can soon make the great step and begin to speak English, my pronunciation is not okay... I discovered your LEP at the beginning of this year... Salut from a very cold Berlin, this night under 0°
Bravo bravo bravo, Iñaki, your wife, Luke
Thanks very much Viviana!!

Brilliant
This channel is worth million subscribers!
I'm also a LEP Ninja.
What a bizarre story! He almost has that sense of humour of yours too. By the way, I came from the Podcast version of this episode just to leave a comment🤪
Спасибо! Очень приятно слушать великолепную английскую - речь, текст..
