Misadventurous Melissa

Everyday is an adventure, or misadventure as the case may be. It is the latter that makes for the best stories, inspiring the name of my blog. I'm a nurse and an attorney (and way too silly sometimes). I am retired now. WELCOME to my blog! This is a work of fiction inspired by true events. The patients I refer to are a patchwork quilt of various patient's problems mixed together. If you think you recognize someone, you are wrong. These people do not really exist.

Within Toppling Distance



A new hospital is being built in our old parking lot. The first picture shows it as viewed from the 8th floor of the existing hospital. The bottom photo shows the two hospitals together. We're getting a new hospital because the old one is not earthquake safe. What bothers me is that if the old hospital falls over in an earthquake, it will land on top of the new hospital. Am I the only one who has thought of that? :)

You don't suppose there was an architect or perhaps a city inspector familiar with earthquakes involved in any of the decisions...

Nah, that would be too logical.
