PLUGGED IN!!

Meet The Wicked Witch of the West!
That's what Ben calls this double tower.
At first he called it the Twin Towers,
But we felt that was not a good name, so he renamed it.
It's two towers on one wheel base.
He takes it anywhere and everywhere he goes,
which isn't very far.
When we say plugged in, we mean PLUGGED IN!
Count them, five pumps.
Each with it's own set of tubing,
plus the monitor on the wall with 4 leads and
an oxygen cannula. And let's not forget the tube in each nostril.
Seriously!
The most important pump on that stand is the little gray one at the bottom.
This controls the pain med.
This is Ben's best friend these days.
Were really hoping for a break up soon. ;)
What a tangled mess he is.
