Hospital fun!

 Over the weekend, I had a "health event" that landed me in the hospital. Not to worry, it turned out to be nothing more than food poisoning with a side of dehydration.  Still, it was one more visit to those sterile hallways, first one since Trump's visit to the Cleveland Clinic back in 2020, and I decided, "Hell, why not post about it?"  Because, why not, right?  Of course, right!  

It's a big hospital campus.  Here's the view from the room I was in.  This is just about a third of the total establishment.  All those buildings are parts of the Clinic.  This means, of course, that people arrive to visit you and take half an hour to figure out where the hell you're stationed!

Then they stick you in a modern hospital bed.  Full of gizmos, buttons to summon help, buttons to accidentally fold you in half like a broken stick-figure, alarms to tell the nurse you (eek!) got out of bed without permission, et cetera ad infinitum.

 Then they roll you to your room, navigating various hazards, crowds of functionaries dancing through the hallways and hopefully not losing you en route.

And finally, you're in your room listening to the guy in the next bed moaning in pain.  And a doctor appears.  When you're pushing 70, the doctor looks younger than your children.  In fact, the doctor looks like this:

But the Cleveland Clinic is a training hospital. So the doctor has a young resident following along.  The resident looks like this:

As a result, you, the patient, feel like you look like this:

And I was only there for a couple of days!  So share some of your hospital adventures!
