Drained

After getting the fluid drained it didn't feel like an instant cure, but I realise that over the course of the day I'm feeling much better.  

No pain or discomfort other than being stuck in my hospital bed with drips and air going into me, a drain coming out of me, and being hooked up to a massive machine that goes beep. 

Once again the ward is grim and windowless, but seeing Mo and the boys cheers me up.
