No it wasn’t me, guys.
Nor do I recall it
nor have advice on how it might be found.
(Just back from a night and a day in hospital after what they suggest was
a 'transient global amnesic event' - or episode -
no, no big dreadful memory loss, just half an hour went missing!
during which I reached, walking with our senior Lab
the marker where I turn back for home,
and made it safely through busy intersections
without on my part any conscious decisions that would
usually have lodged in my memory.
Don’t say it happens to everyone, please.
This seems a first for me at 78, and not just a fit of absentmindedness,
of the sort with which I imagine everyone is familiar.
The important thing was for the hospital to check it wasn’t a mini-stroke,
and they reckon it wasn’t.
Ever been rolled into a big metal tube while fitted into
a sort of open coffin with a mask over one’s face? - While the MRI
machine goes clank and knock and bash bash around one…
No wonder they ask beforehand whether you suffer from claustrophobia.
Engraved on my memory.
Happy and memorable new year 2016, everybody…
from Max in Seattle
