Clearly, someone needs to make you a Hawaiian hospital gown.

Who needs patterns when there's a whole company specializing?

Ah! But earlier Jay said he had other issues with the gown. A custom fit would be even better.

the building you could see from 7CVA is the VA's cancer treatment center.

I hope you feel better soon and I agree about the need for hawaiian print gowns... there should be a rule or something...

Get well soon.

Am I to believe the lil' red macaroni is the offending item found in your colon? That's a whole lot of sharing going on!

Lots of Luv Jay. :-) I'm glad you are getting better. *hugs* Hospitals are never fun. I hope you had a great nursing staff (I have been lucky enough to always get great nurses every time I've been in the hospital)

Did you get to keep the macaroni, or just the photo? I hope the former. It would look good, embedded in lucite and made into a watch fob.

Imagine the fun when you're doing a singing for Mainspring or Escapement and you pull out your pocket watch with the plastic coated macaroni fob!

Those hospital sports bottles are the best (I really mean it, for the oddest of reasons). I'm getting to be a serial collector of the things.

Best wishes. Hubby had prostate cancer, so I've an inkling of what you're going through. Hang in, Jay.

There's something so... normal-feeling about discovering you documented your hospital stay in full multimedia. You have a movie, photos, and even blogged while there. So Jay Lake.

Welcome to the 21st Century of hospital-staying.
