Today M**** had some kind of scan (we have our suspicions why the extreme thoroughness here; the scan was necessary to eliminate possibility of some kind of clot within M****'s innards) . . . I think initially they were saying it would be some kind of ultrasound thing, but then they changed their mind and thought a computerised tomographic scan would be better. I think they call these CTs for short. I had a few of these myself one time, but I was a different person then. Anyway, doesn't matter. So, it was on the way from M****'s ward on the D floor of the Clarendon Wing, travelling to the Jubilee Building, that she enquired about navigating from building to building, ward to ward. And, sure enough, you could lie on a bed and be pushed from pretty much any point in Leeds General Infirmary to any other point in Leeds General Infirmary, via a system of corridors, lifts and inter-connecting walkways. All the time, never once having to 'go outside'. How cool is that? Bear in mind that the oldest part of the LGI is over 200 years old, the Clarendon wing is probably about 30 - 40 years old and the Jubilee Building was completed sometime in the mid to late 1990's (I forget precisely when). Anyway . . . everything's looking good, and M**** can leave the hospital some time Wednesday afternoon.
