O
frabjous
day!
Callooh!
Callay!
That
to
write
a
review,
I
should
be
swayed,
Of
a
hospital!
I
had
been
here
several
times
before,
as
an
outpatient.
I
must
admit
that
I
was
a
bit
put
off
by
the
crowds
and
the
overworked
“system.”
Then
my
doctor
recommended
that
I
have
a
growth
on
my
nose
removed
surgically
(like
Pinocchio,
I
must
have
told
too
many
lies).
So
I
checked
in.
The
food
was
typically
bland
hospital
fare,
but
the
nutritionist
tried
to
accomodate
my
finicky
ways.
Still
it
contained
quite
a
bit
of
Japanese
vegetation
that
the
rest
of
the
world
would
not
consider
“food,”
but
no
problemo:
I
could
always
go
downstairs
to
supplement
my
meals
with
steak,
roast
beef,
or
pear
tarts.
The
doctors
were
a
bit
apprehensive
at
first,
wondering
about
my
Japanese
language
ability.
I
confess,
it’s
not
that
good.
Once
they
saw
that
the
operation
was
a
success
(praising
the
surgeon,
they
repeatedly
said,
“Crazy
mixed-up
clean,”
my
translation
of
“mecha-kucha
kirei”)
and
cheered
up.
From
start
to
finish
the
doctors
were
extremely
proficient,
congenial,
and
responsive
to
my
needs.
The
nursing
staff
rotate
through
the
wards,
so
you
see
one
all
day,
another
all
night,
the
next
day
different
ones.
It
appears
that
their
main
job
description
is
to
be
your
“Friend
for
a
Day”
(or
“for
a
Night”),
though
nursing
skills
are
present
if
needed.
I
had
several
nice
encounters.
Two
or
three
in
particular
(though
their
names
flew
by
like
“haru
ichiban,”
the
first
wind
of
springtime)
made
a
very
good
impression.
The
fourth
made
more
of
a
point
of
showing
me
her
name
tag:
K.T..
Thinking
back,
those
days
that
I
spent
with
K.T.
and
her
sisters
as
my
Friends
were
among
the
happiest
days
of
my
life,
despite
being
hospitalised.
