The medical professionals seemed surprised that I was not more upset about fainting and the consequences. For some reason they seemed to expect me to be freaked out about it all. Too much stuff has happened to me in my life without help close by that a little fall and a bump on the noggin is not going to freak me out.

I'm feeling better, my back is mending, and the lump on my head is getting smaller, so all is goo with the world!
