Actually reminds me of this:

Yesterday, when I was riding my bike, I was hit by a car (that was a bike road, you asshole, WTF have you been doing there in first place?), and spent the next 24 hours at hospital.

Because it was first time I've spent a whole night at hospital, I cannot resist making following observations: hospital food sucks, lying at bed whole time sucks badly, but if your roomates are cool, you man manage it.

That's terrible. I'm glad you're alive and recovering.

Really sorry to hear about it, Kal.  Glad you're ok.

Hospital food does suck.  I had open heart surgery when I was eight, and when they let me eat my first "solid" meal after a few days, it was scrambled eggs.  I complained to my dad after the first bite that they tasted like a tire.  He said: "no they don't, you just haven't eaten in a few days, that's all." But I refused to eat them, and, wanting to cajole me to eat, he grabbed a fork and took a bite.  He slowly looked up at me, and said: "these taste like a tire."

Recovering sucks even more.  Hope you're fully better soon.

A (one) night in hospital? What for? Advised you to stay until they had some test results in regarding potential internal injuries - that would be my guess?

Good to hear you weren't seriously injured.

But I disagree with what you said in general about hospital food. When I had to stay in hospital for a week a couple of years ago, I had really tasty meals every day. Well, I had to share my room with three old men, two of whom suffered from dementia and told me the same stories several times a day, but the fact that I could choose from two main courses for dinner made up for it. In fact, I had put on two kilos when I left hospital.

Preceisly, since I had a concussion.

But, you see, you live in Switzerland!

I hope you feel better Kalwejt!

I feel for you; I was in a bad wreck last summer...thankfully I only had a small cut and I was only a block from my house.

That's true.

The last time I was in a hospital for a few days, which was around the age of 15 - the food was quite good. They have meals like in regular restaurants in Austrian hospitals.

 That's terrible! Get well soon!

Was it a hit and run? If so, I wonder if the driver was DUI?

Hope you're getting better. Closest time I came to having a concussion was while out sharing the gospel on the streets and got hit by a cross prop during a drama.
