Sooner or later the question comes up in every medical students career. How much shock- trauma can the patient stand? Different instructors answer the question, in different ways, but cut to its base level, the answer is always another question: How badly does the patient want to survive? January 26 Two days since the storm washed me up. I paced the island off just this morning. Some island! It is 190 paces wide at its thickest point, and 267 paces long from tip to tip So far as I can tell, there is nothing on it to eat. My name is Richard Pine. This is my diary. If Im found (when), I can destroy this easily enough. There is no shortage of matches. Matches and heroin. Plenty of both. Neither of them worth doodlysquat here, ha-ha. So I will write. It will pass the time, anyway. If Im to tell the whole truth--and why not? I sure have the time!--Ill have to start by saying I was born Richard Pinzetti, in New Yorks Little Italy. My father was an Old World guinea. I wanted to be a surgeon. My father would laugh, call me crazy, and tell me to get him another glass of wine. He died of cancer when he was forty-six. I was glad.
