SCARIEST FICTIONAL SCENE FOR ME

in the book catch 22 (1961) there is a segment called the man in white. it describes a wounded soldier in a hospital bandaged from head to toe. he presumably receives nutrients via a clear liquid through a tube connected to an I V.

another tube connected to a bag on the floor collects a clear fluid from the man in white. a nurse periodically switches bags.

eventually they take him away presumably dead.

although i read this book over 50 years ago this scene remains with me.

************************************************

having been in the hospital and icu several times last year i can tell you similar stuff like this happens all the time.

never mind.

have a good day. yea, yea, yea.

GO JETS. GO GIANTS.
