Four Down, Two to Go
I had my fourth chemo session today, which means I'm more than halfway done. (This photo was actually taken during the third session.)
As the view from my chair demonstrates, the aesthetic imperative has not yet arrived at the UCLA Oncology suite, though the attentive nurses and slightly crowded space create an odd sense of coziness. Most of the patients, including me, sleep most of the time anyway. Intravenous Benadryl is a knockout drug.
For a future column, proposed before I knew how much first-hand experience I was in for, I'd be interested in hearing from readers with thoughts about the design and aesthetics of health care environments.
