I have 21 days of 'Hospitalization Leave', which I will spend pretty much at home in front of the television mildly depressed at the idea of a possible meeting with the medical board to drop my physical eligibility status.
I got a new fibre glass arm, replacing the low tech plaster one. The new arm is better, lighter and works more effectively. It fully immobilizes my wrist, making my left arm more useless as compared to before.
Places where sick people congregate en masse in gloomy fluorescent lit, artificially chilled rooms depress me. I have at least 3 more trips to such places. The time spent there will be excruciatingly painful exacerbated by the painful slowness in administration due to all the people afflicted with pain and suffering clogging up the artery that is hospital administration.
I have a strong desire to stay away from most of the people I know, because well, I'm not close enough to most of them to feel like burdening them with the pains of my affliction. Holing myself at home will probably depress me more.
Gone are the people who could have illicted joy with no effort at all.
