so.
i appear to have a shrunken cerebellum.
this, of course, has nothing to do with any of the eye troubles i've been having. it is, in fact, a symptom most often associated with life-long alchoholics, and sort of explains why some have trouble balancing in their elder years. (the cerebellum has little to do with thought-- it is the center of balance and posture).
have i brought this on myself for drinking so heavily at a young age?
is this why i'm a notorious "tripper"? i have the scars to prove it.
who knows. not many in my family have had mris of the brain, so i'll probly never know if its a congenital thing.
fascinating, the brain. i have ten pages of beautiful negatives that'll have to serve some artistic purpose.
