At some point it was me with my husband and cats, and, of course my precious Dalitz plots. But all was not well. In May 2006 I hit a major tailspin and ended up in the hospital. This is when the Lithium got added. That worked for a while.
In November/December 2006 I ended up being admitted, discharged, re-admitted. I spent Thanksgiving and Christmas and New Years in the hospital. As proof of my dedication to my work, I manged to get some major research done between admissions. When I got back to the hospital, we ended up doing 12 bilateral ECTs. I am lucky I remember my name. When I got back, I got into an argument with my advisor. He insisted that I had done something that I had no recollection of doing. I look in my lab notebook and realize, "Holy Crap, it does appear that I actually did that." So, I pieced that together and figured it out.
So for those of you people who tell me that I seem like my memory is funny, or I have neurological problems, here it goes: I got research done between hospitalizations, and I managed to put it all back together after all those fucking ECTs. Suck it, bitches!
