Photo taken today with a 20-year-old 4MP Olympus C750UZ digital camera on the Super High Quality (SHQ) setting with Enlarge mode chosen. this replicates an 8MP image on camera. It does mean the image takes longer to be written to the XD card, though. This photo HAS been edited, but only to straighten it.

Just back from having had a PICC line installed. This is a tube running inside a vein from just above my left elbow to the top of my heart. It allows for easier sampling of blood and for insertion of nutrients and medication and totally replaced any cannulae. It can also remain in place for many months.
So it’s goodbye to this horrid mess.

These rose patterned bed sheets might not create the exact effect you were going for.

A friend brought a few things from my place, clothing, a working phone charger and, more importantly, a box fan which is working nicely. This is an older hospital building and has very poor air conditioning. We expect 38°C today (100°F) and virtually the same for the next two days.

AFAIK, the pink is from the antiseptic used to flush out the knee joint. They found a bacterial infection.

My left hand after 4 minutes and 44 seconds of exposure to 310 nm wavelength UVB radiation as treatment for eczema. The effect rapidly fades.

I just realised my niece got a Barbie Camper and a Barbie Science Lab for Christmas which is essentially a Barbie Breaking Bad starter kit.
