  • 12/9/2016

    • imagined to myself that it is year 2012 when I was actually admitted there for gull bladder pain.

Friends called an Ambulance and paramedics rushed me to Joondalup Health Campus hospital. following that the doctors kept me in GM sections 8 days, monitoring my heart and also done a CT Scan and one EEG, apparently all normal. I had several blackouts during my stay, and on my last day there, following another episode of fall, woke up thinking the date is three years...
