Hunter's personal weather forecast... [View all]

... invasive medical procedure with possibility of "worse" or same old shit. (Something lesser would be nice.)

I will speak no more of this while I am Schrödinger's cat in a box.

It would be bad luck.

Or maybe I'm really just another sort of drama queen.

But I'd rather think of myself as a good "Dr. Who," not my crazy grandma who bit paramedics or my brother who overturned mattresses and threw I.V. hangers (bags and tubes attached) out the hospital window. Or my wife who rioted in the surgical recovery room demanding to see her babies which the hospital staff and I did accomplish and then she fell peacefully asleep nursing our newborn with a couple of other post surgical patients moaning placidly in the background.

Dr. Who. That's the theme song I want playing in my head under "Conscious Sedation." I strive to be a force for good.
