Our hospitals have no more than 2 people per room. The old ward-style rooms with several occupants have been gone for a very long time. Still, if you only have one roommate with loud habits, you may as well have a ward full of them. It's shocking how inconsiderate patients can be toward one another.
Louise, you must have a low tolerance for medication if Lorazepam affected you so strongly and for so long. At least it helped you get through the scans. As soon as I get in those tubes, I have to pee. Every. Single Time. Even if I used the restroom before going for the scan.
Your drawings are so much fun! They add a lot of humor to the story.
