the walks have saved my stomach. the irritable bowel syndrome is activated by anxiety and nervousness. on a normal non-donating day. but on a day where i have to have dye pumped through my arteries ala NIH Visual Human Project or Body Worlds (see CA Science Center), or spend half an hour in the restroom at St. Joseph Hospital's lab, with the water running, thinking about Niagara Falls, chanting for a steady stream, having just drank 2 litres of water, and missing the cup entirely (why can't they just test my hand?), anxiety and nervousness are heightened, intensified, in plain view. so i go walking. this is lovely downtown santa ana.
