Tallis STILL in Hospital

They finally finally did Tallis' MRI late yesterday after a three day delay due to bad pain management. And then it wasn't that definitive because they missed a section . . . we are so spoiled with Seattle hospitals!

They found a tear in his "Labrum", the cartilage cover on the ball of his hip joint, but the orthopedist said that probably is not the problem as those happen often with no symptoms. They say the want to treat the Spondylitis first and then worry about that. But how to treat it?

Terry and Tallis are working on an adaptation of "Waiting for Godot" called "Waiting for the Doctor Who Never Ever Comes". Terry is trying to figure out how to spring Tallis out of the Third World Country that is a New York City Hospital and drive him up to school. They gave Tallis a walker today to facilitate this. Hard to use that onstage though . . .

In other news, I had a great work day reviewing tapes of actors, very encouraging, and a great meeting with the team re: the Staten Island Ferry shoot.

Am very tired.
