Adventure, and not the good kind
Long story short, I got hustled into the hospital over the weekend to fix a possible detached retina. A nice Romanian ophthalmologist stitched a ring around my retina with a laser. No loss of vision, very little pain. Should work out.
I can’t fault the quality of the treatment or the promptness of it. If anything let the process down, it was the bureaucracy. For example, I wandered lonely as a cloud through a completely empty hospital on a Sunday morning, begging to check in with someone. In the end, I stumbled on a surgical team waiting to perform an emergency surgery and whimpered until someone took pity and led me away.
I’m fine, thankee.
The not-very-good picture is one I took out the train window. It was a stand of trees, and every one of them was laden with multiple balls of mistletoe. Never seen anything like it.
We’ll do the tree now.
