good grief Charlie Brown

She wasn't in pain, but she was drowning in her lungs. It was awful to watch her anxiety and being unable to breathe. Part of me knew then that was the way I was going to go. Maybe it was guilt. She was a very difficult person, even in dying, but I loved her.

need. That hospital garage is part of and close to the entire collection of hospital resources that patients might need.

It’s bizarre to me people would look at preparedness and think it’s a bad thing.

view even really good (and notably normal!) hospitals as places people go to die, instead of to be saved.

Did they install the drop ceiling or was it always there?

Wouldn't want gunk dropping down from the overhead contaminating everything.

Figured they’d need better lighting than a typical garage too. The stop ceiling accommodates that. Still seems like it would be cold.

It does look cold.

that builds up on those concrete floors over the years.

To there credit, they did drop the fire sprinklers through.

Even a million new beds is fine and well...

...with which staff are you attending these new facilities?

shortage of hospital beds. That set up would be suitable for lots of patients not associated with the corona virus. Acute medical problems, ortho, some post ops, or patients needing to be on a monitor.

Looks like they put down a floor covering. I'd like to see some plastic enclosures to provide some safety protection from dust other junk getting tracked in that you wouldn't worry about in a regular hospital setting.

Excellent work, Vandy people

It makes it so real.

Wonder what's going on at our local hospital garage...

Thank goodness the hospital knows a little bit more about medicine and emergency preparedness than the very stable genius does.

They also took a bottle of half full hand sanitizer 2. They will take opened ones.

kind of cool.

that parking garage will be filled.
