brain space

deb & i were discussing with friends, will the hole in my brain stay as empty space.

i would rather like to fill it with an electronic decondary brain.

now i have been told, no... space in the brain fills with fluid. normal brain fluid, whatever that is. so the brain, like a mini i once owned, floats on fluid.

in my case the fluid included blood... not good.

as i understand it... an injury caused blood to flow, to add to the normal brain fluid.

was i in a car accident? no. but i did fall... quite hard... hard enough, i guess, to jar the brain and damage it against the inside of the skull.

there was old blood and new blood. the fall would be new blood. the old blood could be more embarrassing...

the fix for inner ear dizziness is to drop the head back on a pillow... which i did, a few months ago... perhaps that caused the old blood... an older injury.

the surgeon is positive that running is quite safe. falling may not be so safe... i must ask him just how delicate my brain is likely to be. i must ask before deb bans me from anything more than gentle walking :-)
