Inside Me

My Xray plates came it this afternoon. Looks cool doesn't it?

The repost says that I have a "small left pleural effusion". Thats totally awesome because now I don't have to use layman terms like "sick" or "unwell". I have a 'pleural effusion' baby!

You know, when people go, 'Shaunak, what happened to you?'. I don't have to give a stock lame reply anymore. I can state 'I am suffering from a trivial case of left pleural effusion' and enjoy the look of plain frustration on other person's face. And in their heads they are going like "What on earth does he mean? Why cant he just be unwell like all the other kids?"



Happy Diwali EveryoneInjured Pigeon

When reading the title, I expected to see an echo of an embryo lol
No plates showing though, mate.
And I hope you're not feeling sick, but can walk rather comfortably, with your pleural effusion. wink
