I have a Brain…?
September 19, 2008
Seriously, I actually do have a brain and now I have the images to prove it. And by the way, this is a follow up post to the “My Cold July” series, dealing with our Family history of Brain Aneurysms.

The dust had settled on July and things were beginning to return to normal, August was looking good as I booked 3 new wedding dates for 2009. A happy smile on my face, driving along a suburban street after dropping our 3 year old Ben at his play group, I pulled into the parking lot of our Family Doctor. No appointment, but I had a good feeling, the waiting room 1/4 full as I took a seat. I think ipods were invented for times like these, and 4 songs later, I was sitting across from the Doctor, as he called the local Medical Imaging centre to see if they could fit me in for a CT scan.
Unbelievable to me, but there I was less than 35mins later stretched out on the bed of the Scanner as the iodine contrast, that had just been administered, rapidly spread to every part of my body. It started with a weird metallic/chemical taste in my mouth, a little unpleasant, but that was soon overshadowed by the intense heat that seemed to radiate from every cell in my body. Its a feeling that was once described to me by a surfer friend who had had one too many close encounters with the local reef. It was hotter than taking a leak in your wetsuit when the water temp was 10 degrees…

My Cold July – Part II

This is a follow-up post to “My Cold July – Part I“, part of the My Cold July Series, dealing with our Family history of Brain Aneurysms.
Its well after 3am as we wind our way through Footscray, heading west, heading home. I am wide awake and dead tired at the same time, sick of driving, and knowing that I wont be able to sleep at all tonight.
