intake and output

My dad and I had a conversation about marine species this evening.

It is starting to rain.

Today was day two for me in the PICU. It is a different place from where I've been. Today my baby patient breathed helium and oxygen inside a plastic dome that looked like something belonging to a fancy person who happens to live in the Crab Nebula.
When he cried, everyone said it sounded like a person crying from five rooms away.
But no, there he would be, his head under the bell jar, right next to you.

The banana tree outside my bungalow sounds like a man in the bushes.

Don't worry, it really is a tree.

I'm not done telling you about Tx-La but I need to sleep.
