The Anonymous Widower

An automated/instrumented body

As I lie here I’m connected to a heart monitor, that reports by radio to the central support unit. But they also take my blood pressure, pulse rate and temperature every hour or so.

How long will it be before I could wear a body suit, that did everything automatically, even if I was at home in bed?

This could take a complete map of everythung the wearer did.

In addition to medical treatment, it could have implications in the treatment of mental health and drug addition. especially if it contained a two-way communication link, so they could be informed when to take their medication.

  3. James, Good to hear what is happening – re the body suit and speaking as a woman, it takes away the ‘got nothing to wear’ moment which is just a little de trop….
    However, I guess it could have its moments…. Take care, lots of love and look forward to seeing you soon. Skoupye x

  4. Hi James
    I was so sorry to learn that you were in hospital again. You sound as if you are on the mend and keeping cheerful. Not the way you intended to spend your round the world trip.
    Body suit – sounds like quite a good idea to me. Take care.
