CAT Scan of my cranium
That was "Cranium", my typing is rotten today.
Several weeks ago my doctor thought it wise to get a CAT Scan of my entire body. For the most part I'm a non-interventionist when it comes to medicine as I prefer a more holistic approach by way of prevention.
The thought of being swallowed whole by an enormous medical device and being bombarded with x-rays isn't the first thing I want to do when I get out of bed in the morning. On this occasion I decided to take my doctors advice.
The results of the procedure caused quite a disturbance to the attendants and they called in several other physicians. Having checked the device several times in succession they called in a mathematician, an astro physicist and even a biologist who happened to be in intensive care to view the results.
It appears that the scan of my cranium returned a volume of unspecified size but astonomically large. The image looked like this:
Prominent astronomers report that a close examination of my CAT Scan reveals several hundred million perfectly normal galaxies and from that perspective I have nothing to worry about. Initially they thought an over abundance of supernovae might be a problem, however; they later retracted that opinion as I am usually a rather creative sort of person.
To date doctors, psychologists, and physicists have been unable to explain the phenomenon but have generally agreed that I must spend a good deal of time thinking about things.
In the end I was sent home with a rather large medical bill for having overloaded the CT machine. I did manage to get the hospital staff to let me keep some of the nicer photographs.
