To stride a limit.
20 January 2014 (669)

John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford view map

It looks -- and felt like -- a cell:
tethered, as I was, to a computer in the corner,
monitoring (or looking for?) my brainwaves,
both awake and (infrequently) asleep.

I've been released, now!

Glad you have left this place, hope all is well.

I hope you are on the road to recovery. And your brainwaves are normal :)

I hope all is well. A very nicely exposed and composed image. The muted colors really add to the mood of the photo.

Good!!

I will never forget my three weeks in an isolation hospital when I was 12 years old. I'm not sure why they put me on there as I just had a mild form of epilepsy - not a contagious disease! I was grateful for my family visiting every day (who had to wear protective clothing!)and although I had radio, it was just a speaker in the room so couldn't chose the station.

Take care!

Indeed. A sombre image, but well taken. A farewell shot, I think! V

Yikes - this could tell a whole different story!
