Available my arse

I like the ward I'm in in Southampton Hospital. Piam Brown, it's called. The staff are all friendly and nice; and while the ward could do with an expansion (i.e. more rooms - it's always completely full), it's generally a great place to have treatment (if you have to have treatment :P).

It's even got an education room, which has two computers and stuff. Internet access and all that. It even has a wireless network. "Great!" you may think, "all the patients and parents and people will be able to use the interweb!"

Unfortunately, it's not that simple.

Warning, swearing near the end.

As you all know, I have Ewing's Sarcoma (if you don't, then what the hell have you been reading whilst looking at this blog? :P; anyway, I shouldn't insult my readership). However, what you may not know is that I also have epilepsy.

They say lightning doesn't strike twice (the clichés are flowing thick and fast tonight) but in my case, it obviously has. And it's bloody annoying.
