It could be a lot worse

    I ended up being surprise admitted to the hospital on Wednesday night. I thought it was a heart attack, but apparently just indigestion or something else. It did afford me an evening as an inpatient, something I've never been before, and weirdly I feel not just better in body now, but in soul.

    What was it that repaired me? Being in a place where nurses check on you every few hours? Talking to friends on cellphone for hours? Or was it the bloodletting? They must have drawn blood about 5x in 18 hrs. Sometimes I feel better after blood draws. I wonder, they used to use bloodletting as a medical treatment, now debunked, now I wonder if there was something to it?

    I prefer leeches to doctors.
