3M Red Dots (mystery illness 2)

Today I am hope from hospital. Blood clot ruled out but possible gall stone. Still had red dots from monitors.

BTW it is the summer solstice, and I started 365 exactly 12 months ago, so here is a near nude self portrait.
Oh noes!! :( Get to feeling better soon - take it easy!

I am sorry to hear of your illness - may you recover quickly and be better than ever before - 200% credit to you for dedication to the project! Well done! I am looking forward to your photographs once you hit the roads again!

December 22nd, 2011  
So sorry you are sick Peter. Hope you learn what the problem is and are feeling better soon.
December 22nd, 2011  
Prayers for healing... pretty sure I will not be doing a nude or semi-nude selfie at any point in my project!
December 22nd, 2011  
Rest, and get better soon!
December 22nd, 2011  
Fabulous and honest selfie! I hope your Solstice celebration was awesome, and your test results come back all positive. I hope it doesn't offend you if I add you to my prayers. I respect all traditions, and hope to never offend...

That's a huge improvement on yesterday's shot!! I had a kidney stone earlier in the year and understand how horribly scary sudden intense pain can be..... take it easy and get better soon :)
December 22nd, 2011  
So pleased to see you upright again.
December 22nd, 2011

Hope you feel better soon, Peter!

Sorry to hear you're unwell. If they've ruled out a blood clot (anerurism) and think it might be gall stones - make sure you get to the hospital asap if you have pain. It might be the gall stones getting stuck which leads to acute pancreatitis which can be very nasty. Any severe pain or/and vimiting = hospital immediately.

Get well soon

December 22nd, 2011  
get well soon Peter!!!
December 22nd, 2011  
Oh my gosh! Hope all goes well, Peter. Nice selfie!
December 22nd, 2011  
Feel well soon, Peter.
December 22nd, 2011  
Very brave to do the selfie and praying for a quick end to whatever is bothering you.
December 22nd, 2011  
Mend quickly!
December 22nd, 2011  
Great gritty shot!! I have rarely been brave enough to post a clothed selfie... Hope 2012 brings good health.
December 23rd, 2011  
I hope they figure it out and you are feeling up to snuff soon! very powerful shot.
December 23rd, 2011  
My thoughts are with you Peter. I hope all goes well.
December 23rd, 2011  
Oh no! Glad to hear you're feeling better and that it's not a blood clot. But still, gall stone?? :(
December 23rd, 2011  
Yay! for feeling better. But you take it easy mister! :)
December 23rd, 2011  
An interesting selective coloring. I think about how vulnurable we all are. The human body is complicated and so many things can happen. This is a good photograph of your experience. Take care of yourself.
December 23rd, 2011  
Great portrait, great processing - hope you get well.
December 24th, 2011  
I'm just catching up. sorry to be so late with my comments. and more sorry to hear that you haven't been well and this just before Christmas.
have you any good news by now? nice candid selfie even under this unexpected circumstance.
December 27th, 2011  
Sorry to hear you have been in such agony! Hope you are feeling better by now! Kudos to you for documenting this moment in true 365 style! Congrats on your project!!

This is a strong, beautiful portrait. It speaks loudly.
December 28th, 2011  
Yes, my first thought was also that it's such an honest portrait. How often do we only want to see and capture beauty as we perceive it to be? This is what life is all about - true and honest. I like the lines of your face - and the expression in your eyes - almost emotionless? Glad you're not seriously ill. Hope you get the best treatment and that you'll be up and running again soon!
December 29th, 2011  
So sorry to hear this. Hope all is well now.
January 5th, 2012  
I hope you are doing better now!
