Functional, sterile and austere – but when discharged later, we passed the automatic door to leave and a sunny and shadowy world awaited. Natural light and strong, well-defined shadows prompted the phone to be found and the scene captured. This sun filled tunnel can be looked as an abyss, but instead of going into it, we passed outside of it. I love unexpected shadows!
Emergency rooms are ghastly. I have a bit of a medical phobia (ironic, considering that I worked in health care for most of my working life) and being in an E.R. makes me start feeling panicky, which is not very helpful. Also, after all these years, you'd think they could do something about making the gurneys longer. I'm five foot six, not a giant by any means, and my feet still stick off the end.
