IMAGES FROM MY VACATION:
The nurse checks out my pulse in my foot while I was in ICU She was very nice!
One of many IV’s that I had throughout my stay at the New Britain Lucky Man Resort.
The ICU nurse talks with Mariann about my motor and how to get it tuned up…
A repost of me in ICU posing for Mariann…
A sure sign unine the hospital! The thing is I had not been allowed to drink. This is all from the IV’s they kept filling me up with. Since I was all wired up, I was not allowed or able to get up. I had to carefully roll on my side and “void” as the nurse put it. Once, I was not able to roll over so I has to work it on my back. The nurse gave me some pointers and it actually worked!
A self-portrait from the ICU bed…
This is where they inserted the thingy for the angiogram that went up from my groin to my heart and then let loose with some dye
I thought the light on the end of my finger was like ET’s finger… Yarbz Phone Home!
This was when the tattooed orderly and his buddy (behind me) were pulling me through the halls when leaving ICU for the cardiology department on the 4th floor where I was to spend the rest of my time in the hospital.
Feste visits and I look a little worse for the wear.
Yummy breakfast in the cardiololgy department.
A shot from my 4th floor window at the Hospital of Central Connecticut (previously New Britain General Hospital).
A view of my area. I didn’t have a roommate until the last day. My roommate was a loud kinda guy who was about 75 and weighed 120 pounds. He complained a lot and had permanent diarrhea…
This is my last IV and it was to cause a lot of pain later when being removed.
This is the canyon in the bed caused by sitting up for hours talking with visitors. The mattresses are all covered with plastic so it is hard not to sweat.
Here is my blood which is just a small little bit of the amount of blood that was taken over the four days I was there.
Here is a nurse talking to diarrhea man next door.
This is Ivana updating the board with her name and date. I drew the red stuff.
Santa brought me, and everyone else it seems, a poinsetta on Christmas Eve. I left it for the next patient.
A self-portrait taken while walking around the hospital cardiology ward…
Even yet still another self-portrait…
A nurse works in the long, dark hall in cardiology while the mostly geriatric patients sleep.
Ivana works at removing my IV about an hour before my discharge. It hurt the worst. More than anything that was performed for me, on me or to me…
Can you say OUCH!!!! Or even [CENSORED]!!!

They never should have done away with the old white nurse uniforms.

The biggest bummer of all has to be spending Xmas in the hospital. Where did this horrible heart attack happen? Were you home, work, or at the bar eating hotwings? I’m very glad you are okay. You were probably the first patient to take pictures of nearly everything happening to you in the hospital.

Geez, checking in to wish you a happy and healthy 2007 and I think I should have sent those wishes earlier! I’m glad you’re on the mend. Take care of yourself!!

Is this a doctors worst nightmare; having a photojournalist for a patient? Or a photojournalists worst nightmare; having to document one’s own treatment by the medical community?
I think the doctors probably had it worse…
Bring back the white uniforms!
