Not going home yet; my red blood cell count has dropped significantly. The harmless (and most likely) explanation is that I was mildly dehydrated when I went in and my first blood sample drawn, but the alternatives are nasty enough to warrant another night here.

On the positive side I am feeling better, though far from 100%, and I'm eating real food again.

I wish to report that hospital food, at least here at Memorial, has vastly improved. I just had a quite acceptably prepared glazed ham slice, peas and carrots, whipped potatoes (yes, reconstituted, but nicely done) and one of the best apple crisps I've ever tasted.

Alas, no real Internet (this is from my iPhone) as whoever set up their network apparently couldn't be bothered to follow standard practice and used some approach that won't work with Macs.

Still, if I have to be here, it's a good hospital to be in.

Oddly Saint Marys was Mac Compatible. Go fig.

Glad you're doing better.

When I was in the hospital having my daughter in 2006 there was neither internet nor tv other than local channels. Luckily I had a bazillion e-books on my PDA.

So glad you're improving.

Hope you feel all better and get to go home SOON!

Glad to hear you're better :)

Here's hoping that things will continue to look up.

I also definitely agree that Mac users need equal internet love. Good thing you have the iphone-- not sure there's enough materials to build a proper wi-fi high-gain antenna from common hospital room materials.

Oh, and to be the safe side-- have you checked to see what form of X-ray developing process the hospital uses? ;)

Heh, the antenna would be to find a mac-compatible network outside the hospital, one way or another.

Asked about the developer tanks, because you never expect the Virigar Inquisition.
