Been there, done that

I can hardly believe it, but I’m back in the hospital again. I had some adverse reaction from the splint (or whatever it’s called) they put on my foot after the surgery on Thursday, and it got so bad Friday night we decided to go to the emergency ward, after which they admitted me for possibly three days. I may have some kind of infection in the soft tissue of my foot, from the gauze or from the antiseptic (or something, but it looks terrible).

I was trying to find some clever thing to photograph, but there really is nothing interesting in this room, which is not nearly as large or as nice as my other one here.

So, looks like it might be longer than I thought before I can go out and take some “real” pictures again!

You are really having your fill of hospitals there! I am really sorry to hear that now you have an infection, on top of everything else.
