Day 16

Dec 09, 2003 09:12

I kinda meant to keep this updated, but I have nothing interesting to say and my classmates are damned nosy. Well, tonight is treatment number fourteen, which should be my last one. Freeeeeeeeeeedom! Freedom from the hospital, at least. I'm still a prisoner of my own mind. Maybe it will get better. Maybe this was my last chance, and I'm never going to get better. Maybe I should wave goodbye and leap off the face of the earth.
Tyler and Alex came to visit last week. Tyler was quiet and reserved, like he really didn't want to be there...I certainly don't blame him. Alex was his usual self, yelling and talking to random people, riding the elevators up and down and things of the sort.
Karen came too. Unfortunately, my uncle and his partner had taken me to Kingsway Mall at the time she came to visit. She left me a cute little reindeer and a lovely letter. I miss her.
Alex came to visit me yesterday by himself. We went to the food court, to the Glen Rose Hospital Library and visited our old hospital ward while we were there. That was all fine and dandy, but Alex was totally out of control. He let out tremendous burps at the worst times, ran and shouted through the hallways of wards with dying people in them, stuck his head in air ducts, hissed and scowled at the geriatrics (whom he loudly called "The Legions of Darkness"), and did numerous other things that made a complete ass of both him and myself. To a degree it was funny, but after awhile I was ready to go off in search of tranquilizer darts and a large plastic bag.
Hopefully my next entry will be written from the warm, reassuring confines of my crappy apartment.
