Finished! "The Ghost Map" follows the progression of a cholera outbreak in 1850s London & two men who worked tirelessly to stop it. John Snow, a doctor best known at the time for his work in the field of anesthesiology, was certain that the virus could be traced to contaminated water from the Broad Street public pump. But in order to prove it, against the grain of the prevailing miasma theory, he would need to map out the deaths, survivals, water usage, foot traffic, & all sorts of other intimate details of the lives of the London citizens surrounding the water source. The author tells the story of this monumental turning point in our understanding of cholera & of urban life with highly readable style & broad scope. #nofilter #noedit #book #books #bookstagram #literature #nonfiction #reader #reading #bookworm #bookreviews #theghostmap #stevenjohnson #victorian #history #epidemiology #19thcentury https://www.instagram.com/p/CCHF9YFsQJB/?igshid=8flma7ttyj9w

[thoughts-from-a-bottle-blog]

2 years

today it’s exactly two years ago where it all started.  (I feel ready enough to tell my story from how I remember it to be, this is how I experienced it) The first time I went to the hospital, picked up by an ambulance. I was already feeling sick since Monday. Because of my fear of hospitals I didn’t go until Wednesday the 23rd of March.  When I got there people seemed busy. My mom handled most of the talking, I was in so much pain I hardly remember much of what was said. All I remember is the itching, that never ending itching. I was light headed, I hadn’t been able to eat for days and hardly drank. Steven Johnson already kicked in pretty bad, my mouth was blistered and swollen, I couldn’t open it far without having to tear the skin from my braces.  The nurse asked me some general ‘’how do you feel’’ questions, and next thing I remember I’m in a hospital room. They talked to my mom. I remember being dizzy, and just wanting it to stop hurting and itching.  The nurses took my blood and were arguing whether or not it was just the flue. We knew it wasn’t, since the medicine causing it all warned for this. There was a near impossible chance for Steven Johnson, but by any skin irritation it was advised to see a doctor and stop the meds. Now here is where the hospital fucked up. They send me home without the blood results (which later confirmed SJS). They told me I had to keep taking the medicine no matter what. When they found out I had SJS they never called and tried to cover it up. I went home, and did as I was told, against what I already knew...  I got worse, and don’t have many memories of Thursday. I remember my mom calling the doctor again, saying I got much worse. All she got in reply is that I already went yesterday, so I just had to deal with it until Friday. I still had to take my meds, and it would probably be fine.  Friday came around and I was covered head to toe in yellow liquid filled blisters. everything hurt, was itching and burning. It’s the worst pain I’ve felt to this very day. I remember my dad coming home Friday, and as soon as he saw me he almost gagged. He went downstairs, and I remember him yelling at my mom I had to go to the hospital now. ‘‘She looks like she was attacked by mustard gas’‘ --side note, to this day mustard gas injuries are the best way to describe the way my ‘‘blisters’‘ looked. Covered like that from head to toe-- After some arguing my mom called the doctor, and to the doctors we went. My actual doctor wasn’t there for some reason, so we got moved to the emergency-only substitute place (not a hospital, just a small doctors place). The doctors there seemed panicky and immediately called the hospital, so I just had to wait for the ambulance.  I remember trying to walk outsideand failing. The ambulance guy trying the grab me in time. My skin was already so bad that he ripped all my skin off with his thumb. (To this day I have his thumbprint imprinted on my shoulder as a scar) We stayed in AAUH (the hospital) from Friday afternoon until Saturday morning.  At first they put me in a shared room, with two other people. Though that didn’t take long. I needed to pee, and since I had no skin left.. it hurt. I screamed so much, I almost passed out. I was crying, gagging and screaming my lungs out. Not much later they removed all the others from the room. I couldn’t sleep that night, and had an iv drip in my left hand. So I spent the night trying to draw with my right hand. After a good few hours I managed to make a chubby looking batman, I remember being proud of it.. even though it seems silly now, it meant a lot.  After everyone woke up I got rolled into the ambulance, no longer being able to walk. The ambulance people got lost on their way to Skejby (the other hospital). But eventually we got there. The ambulance guy tried really hard to keep me awake, though it was so hard not to just give in to the pain and fade away.. --I’ll continue at a later time since it’s still really hard to talk about--

#marchwrapup, a few days late because my momma was in town. As you can see, I’m doing well on my resolutions to use the library more/better (though most of these were impulse finds rather than holds) as well as to read more non-fiction. Not pictured is a kid’s biography of Lafayette that I checked out for my Hamilton-obsessed kids, and which they insisted I read as well. Somehow this has become my year of reading the Revolution, like last year turned into my year of reading the Civil War. I might as well go with it at this point. (The Invention of Air is about Joseph Priestly, who had a significant influence on several of the founding fathers.) . . #biographyofsilence #pablodors #imafraidofmen #vivekshraya #theblacktidesofheaven #jyyang #betweentheworldandme #tanehisicoates #theinventionofair #stevenjohnson #revenantgun #yoonhalee #thetitanscurse #rickriordan #thedesertsmellslikerain #garypaulnabhan #captainmarvel #kellysuedeconnick #abbott #saladinahmed #bookstack https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvwij8BHgnA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wypha79cmlzi

Intra-ocular pressure variation associated with the wear of scleral lenses of different diameters. Michaud L, et al. Cont Lens Anterior Eye. 2019. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/30054088/ Abstract PURPOSE: To evaluate the variation of intra-ocular pressure during scleral lens wear, and the influence of the lens diameter on the results. METHODS: This is a prospective, randomized study performed on Caucasian subjects (16 F; 5 M), aged 24.7 + 4.1 y.o. A diurnal variation pattern (IOPg) was established, then, transpalpebral IOP (IOPt) was taken before and during SL wear. One eye, randomly fitted with a 15.8 diameter SL (L1), was compared to the fellow eye, fitted with an 18 mm SL of the same design, thickness and material (L2). Anterior segment tomography was taken pre-and after lens removal. RESULTS: Baseline IOPg (L1:15.2 + 3.1 mm HG; L2: 15.1 +/- 2.8 mm) did not reveal significant diurnal variations. Wearing L1, IOPt rose from 10.1 + 1.9 mm HG to 14.4 + 5.5 mm HG after 4.5 + 0.3 hrs, while with L2, it rose from 9.2 + 2.1 mm HG to 14.4 + 4.8 mm Hg. This difference is statistically significant based on time but not on lenses. Anterior segment parameters did not vary except for the anterior chamber volume (L1: -1.53 + 7.61 mm3; L2: -3.47 + 6.4 mm3), and for the corneal thickness (+2.1% with L1 and L2). CONCLUSION: These results suggest that, as evaluated with a non-standard transpalpebral methodology, IOP during scleral lens wear may be increased in average by 5 mm Hg, regardless of the lens diameter. More work is needed to confirm if practitioners should be warned when using SL on populations at risk for glaucoma. Copyright © 2018 British Contact Lens Association. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Book 18/25 - Farsighted: First book I’ve read on the subject of decision making. The author makes the point that this is a topic left out of most of educational backgrounds and that is very much true. Farsighted is about three books in one, a how-to guide about making decisions, American military decisions in history, specifically the Revolutionary War and capturing and killing Osama Bin Ladin, and an essay about Middlemarch. I’m looking forward to using some of the decision making techniques over the coming year. Specifically full-spectrum mapping, scenario planning, premortum, linear value modelling, and bad events tables. These are very similar tools to what I use in engineering for evaluating designs, so why not bring them into the fold to make big life decisions? #farsighted #stevenjohnson #reading #neverstoplearning #feedyourbrain https://www.instagram.com/p/Br_n6VVgqoi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=okm9t9fy17aq

Go for a walk; cultivate hunches; write everything down, but keep your folders messy; embrace serendipity; make generative mistakes; take on multiple hobbies; frequent coffeehouses and other liquid networks; follow the links; let others build on your ideas; borrow, recycle; reinvent.
