After seeing one over at Biting the Dust, I decided to have a crack at creating a word cloud that summarises what I’ve written about.

Putting the love back into intensive care
18 January 2009Your boyfriend has had a nasty accident.
He is in intensive care.
He’s intubated, sedated & ventilated.
He’s got a GCS of 3 and ICPs shooting into the mid-40s.
He’s got a catheter in and is incontinent of faeces.
Multiple choice question time.
How do you express your love and show your support for your comatose loved one? Do you:
- Visit every day and sit by his bedside, telling him how much you love him, and that everyone is hoping that he gets well soon?
- Actively participate in family-centred care opportunities including brushing his hair and moisturising his dry hands?
- Make a playlist of his favourite songs for him to listen to on an iPod, hoping that there’s someone in there to hear the music?
- Start wanking him while the nurse’s back is turned and then ask if you can have sex with him.
I wish I could say the answer is either 1, 2, or 3.
I really do.
I guess that some people just have a lot of love to give…
