Pick your own caption

a. “Who’s the mope with all the post-it notes on his head?
b. “Your nurse gets a D- in bandaging 101”
c. “Is this some sort of new hair transplant treatment?
d. “Looks like an EEG to me. My guess is that somebody didn’t keep taking his Keppra.”

If you answered “d” give yourself a gold star. Not only did I have an incident earlier this week, I had to admit that I wasn’t taking my Keppra every day, twice a day.  I disappointed my family, my neurosurgeon and myself.

Admitting that hurt worse than showing this stupid picture.

Hi John,
Don't be too hard on yourself. We've all been there. Enjoyed the pic!

Thanks for the support! I still love your nicely original voice...like your description of meningioma - "Men-in-gioma sound more like a group of guys test-driving the latest foreign import with all the bells and whistles, not to mention the 8.9 percent available financing option."

All the best,

John

PS - Don't look at the picture too long, it'll kill your appetite.
