2nd day out of hospital

  Today, Thursday, is the last day in Bangalore, we leave Friday at 3:00 am to Frankfurt and the direct to Austin.

I am much better able to walk (better than Biden now) longer distances but still get tired. We may have a short visit around town and , of course, visit a bookstore. I am already taking resisting pills not to buy books.

Finally, this afternoon Ihad the opportunity of leaving the hotel and go arouhd town. We took unuber and went to a bookstore called Blossoms. It had the most incredible number of books, onvirtually any topic. Books were stacked at random although under a general subject. Like history you’d see all types of history books, rsnging from Xenophon’ Last Days of Socrates to a history of India.

It is a bookstore to spend time leisurely. Contrary to my best intentions I ended buying about 6 books.

  After the bookstore adventure, we wenr to visit Jayant’s parents whom I have not seen yet. We visited fobr a while and then we walked about 1/2 mile or so to visit this temple. A Hindu temple with several Gods’ and Godessess’ statues. Here are some photos of that temple, I just wished I had had a real vacation instead of my hospital stay.

Out of the hospital

The hospital bill came about $3,000 total. Not bad for a private room in a world class hospital. Daily meals were good, food was good but I had very little apetite, so I ended up losing another 12 lbs.

Fourth day in hospital

Image
  This is the fourth day in the hospital. It’s morning now so I’ll expect all the doctors with their entourage to come in shortly. This is an excellent hospital, very thorough specialists as well as generalists. But it’s still a hospital taking blood samples several times daily- they must be feeding the son of dracula. Photo is just to show the degree of my status. Not pleasant but still alive, I think.
