I tried to start a KrAp game with some of the infermeros (male nurses) but hallway stalking La Paz cops soon put a stop to that. My room mate was a living corpse for the first nine days, then strike living for the tenth day. I wandered the halls I haunted the farmacia, the surgeon never showed until I believe day 11 or 12. He marched into the room followed by the goon squad of orderlies, rolled me over onto a gurney, and we hauled donkey to the operating room. A mask was strapped to my face and three hours later I came to with gigantic stainless steel spikes sticking out of my wrist. They did not. Let me clarify this. DID NOT EVER give me so much as a single Tylenol. So I a0sked. No hay!" came the response (there is none). Pain killer injection?

I checked with a hospital in Zapopan Jalisco just for drill. Eleven thousand eight hundred and some odd dollars. A private hospital in Mexico (city) wants 830,000 pesos to do the surgery on my spine + whatever days recovery in hospital costs. Plus medicine + anesthesiologist + cardiologist consultation.

I do remember the cruz roja searching everywhere in Zihuatanejo for two hours for a pulse oximeter for me. 2008. And 2009 in Lazaro Cardenas rooting around to finally find the only place that had an electrocardiogram was a private practice cardiologist. Seguro Popular did not have one. In a city of 200,000
