TRUTH IN HEALTHCARE REVISITED III

more hallucinations and dreams in hospital:

in addition to my teleportation dream described here on april 20, 2014 i can recall only two other hallucinatory/dream experiences.

in one the nurse of the day put her hand on my knee and later appeared in just her under garments being very well endowed. this particular dream was so realistic that i didn't realize it was just a dream until much time had passed. only after i separated the parts did i know it was all one dream. one of the clues was that the view from the room in my dream was different from my real room. i was actually wondering in the dream why she didn't know that i was too sick (and married) for any physical activity. i know. its because i'm adorable.

in another dream/hallucination i had accidentally climbed into a dumpster instead of a chair on a moving sidewalk in a movie theater in washington heights in new york city. i was too weak to climb out. the theater was going to open at 9 am. i could actually see the real clock on the wall of my room. the time on the clock and the real time showed it was about seven o'clock. i was cold and i must have rang a (real) buzzer that was available. a person came to the door. it was the real nurse (i think) for my room. she asked what i wanted and i told her that i wanted to get out of the dumpster and stay in the warm lobby until the theater opened. she must have answered something and went away. this ritual went on for awhile. unfortunately i don't recall how this ended or some of the finer details of this dream/hallucination.

i think i was in this illusory theater before in other dreams but that could just be part of this illusion.

the wapo had an article this week about hallucinations people have in hospitals. my illusions are not scary in any way and are usually just interesting.
