I have just rewatched The Draughtsman's Contract, one of my favourite overblown 1980s art films. I see something new in it every time I watch, and I would kill for those costumes. And gods own soundtrack.
Whisper it. Scotland. Triple Crown?
...Championship?
Finally discharged, waiting for taxi, then train. Nearly home.
Was told by increasilgly unconnvinced nurse at 5am smothering by pillow was not a recognised therapy. Will not miss being on this ward.
Home tomorrow, doctor happy with me. Good news, as man in neighbouring bed was possessed by the devil last night. He's Romanian and rcovering from throat surgery and spent all night gargling, spitting, swearing and shouting in his sleep.
Negatives: two of my vertebrae and one of my discs hsve dissolved into bone soup and are resettimg naturally. This will cost me a permanent crick in my neck and the loss of a bit of height. Could be fixed with op to put metal cage in my neck, 5% chance of paralysis below c3.
Positives: thhe x-ray that spooked my consultant snd got me emergency admitted looked worse than it was. Hospital seems disappointed I can walk. Likely to be released a week today fingers crossed. Am in Liverpool at Walton Centre (Aintree) if anyones local.
Back into hospital as an inpatient. In the Walton in Runcorn this time, for assessment and possible spinal surgery. So theres a thing thats happening. Going in tomorrow.
Seeing a lot of online hate for Starfleet Academy so decided to give it a try. It appears no worse than any of the other nu trek series; what am I missing?
I mean, hilarious ship design aside. Saucer, secondary hull, two nacelles, its really not hard.
Bad news out of todays MRI - infection still present although largely cpnfined to spine now. This after 13 weeks of intravenous antibiotics. Awaiting new treatment plan.
