Hospital Diary 4/12/11

Thursday, March 22nd, 2012

Translation:

Still in the hospital. Two weeks almost (tomorrow it’ll be two weeks).

Today is supposed to be another day of news, and after that, more days for “processing” and “managing”. I slept well tonight. Less pain.

Waiting for the doctors to say what is it that I have and what’s the plan.

Jonathan (johnny) is still in the premature baby ward. When I’m there, I talk to him and try to tell him what’s happening, following the advice of Assaf the psychologist.

Being hospitalized meant waiting a lot for test results, for doctors visitation hours, for breakfast (there was an amazing breakfast at the Maternity unit :).

Hospital Diary 27/11/11

Sunday, February 26th, 2012

Translation:

I dreamt Oleg and I were walking inside a dream of one of us (I think it was mine). We walk through a flat wilderness, once in a while a strange figure passes by us, or a galloping horse. I say to him: “why not? Let’s hang out a bit in our subconscious”.

It’s a wintery morning / we’re listening to James Blake / with the added beat / of the Magnesium drop counter
 

 

Hospital Diary – Thursday

Sunday, February 19th, 2012

Parts of this page was drawn during one sleepless night, when I was given something against the pain “with some opiates in it”. I expected it would make me sleep but actually I felt very alert and saw weird faces, body parts, primitive statues etc. in the creases of the bed sheets.

The diary started two days after Jonathan’s birth, and one day after hearing the bad news.

My feet were huge and swollen, my head was surprisingly clear.
