She does suffer from Migraines that effect her during the day and nightmares of various wild fantasy's at night ...finding herself daydreaming during the day and this is just not ladylike . Also she is concerned about her weight ...going on this diet and that , not eating right overindulging along with making herself throw up so she has stomach issues , diarrhea concerns and the list goes on.  She has fainting spells and shortness of breath ...and breaks out in hives on a regular basis from worry and stress. Basically She is lonely and likes the attention she gets at Coolidge Memorial as the staff seems to give her that needed security that her heath is not an issue . Maybe she is just going through a midlife crisis .<br/><br/><br/><strong>Background : </strong>Carla is a housewife and has been married for now for about 12 years to a husband that is never home and away on business a lot as a traveling salesman.  Well he has a mistress she suspects but has a fear of bringing it up cause then she would have to find a job or something. So she just pretends nothing is wrong and acts naive which isn't really hard to do . The woman concentrates on making sure she does not gain any weight and fears that when she ages that he might leave anyways . The later a new concern as she approaches the age of 30. Between the diet pills and feel good medicine she takes the woman is always strung out and rather addicted to the fact that a pill can change anything. Living in her own little dream world of perfection . Right down to her pinup girl hairstyle , she might not be the brightest girl on the block but she does live to try and please her husband. She has a great insurance card though it seems to pay for everything and her weekly visits to the Hospital seem to be the highlight of her life so much better than watching a soap opera on the TV. The things you can learn in the waiting room .<br/><hr/>Name: Mrs. Hilda Staudemeyer<br/>Player: RAMSTER<br/>Age:  89<br/>Condition: Gomere<br/><div class="floatright">(http://www.atlanticrock.com/images/Elba.jpg)</div><br/>Hilda is a little old lady with just about every textbook disease of the elderly. Uremia, incontinence, intractable dementia that increases and decreases in severity without warning, and all other functions diminished. Has wandered out of bed on occasion and broken something several times before. For a gomere, she has quite a large vocabulary; unfortunately, none of her stock phrases such as "Just three pennies, Susan" and "No, Pete, I'm a good girl" make any sense, although they probably offer clues to her past, if anyone was interested in it. The lady is obviously very ill, but apparently immortal.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><hr/><br/><div class="floatleft">(http://www.emeraldlich.com/uploads/Jane1.JPG)</div><strong>Character Name:</strong>Jane Doe<br/><strong>Player Name:</strong>LOVELYLILT<br/><strong>Position:</strong>Patient<br/><br/><strong>Age:</strong>Early to mid twenties<br/><strong>Height:</strong>5’ 3”<br/><strong>Weight:</strong>105 lbs.<br/><strong>Condition/symptoms:</strong>Mysterious bleeding, amnesia, hallucinations,<del>possible substance OD</del>, concussion?<br/><br/><strong>Background:</strong>No one knows much about Jane, yet. She arrived at hospital a few days ago, she was brought there by people from a night club. No one knew who she was, they found her unconcious, in the bathroom. She had a nosebleed, so they thought she overdosed on drugs. Except she didn’t have any drugs in her blood, she only drank too much.<br/><br/>While Jane stays in hospital, doctors and nurses find she has two personalites. Most of the time, she is very sweet and friendly, almost like a child. But some times, she turns very mean and vicous, she curses at every one and gets agressive. She also gets hyper sexual when she’s agressive, she almost attacks people, for sex! And while like that, she lies and says any thing, to get what she wants.<br/><br/>She doesn’t remember her name, or any thing about her past. She only remembers seeing lots of lights, and really believes that aliens kidnapped her! And then returned her to earth, in the club bathroom. Whenever she switches her personalities, she bleeds much, from the nose, and her mouth. And she feels much pain, in her back and neck. No one knows why, yet. This frustrates the doctors; they pass her around the departments, because they can’t figure it out.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><hr/>Name: Mr. Dan Ryan<br/>Player: RAMSTER<br/>Age:  53<br/>Condition: Metastatic colon cancer - emaciation, bloody faeces, bleeding, bloody vomiting<br/>(http://www.dwdv.org.au/images/SteveGuestLosesHalfHisWeight.jpg)<br/><br/>Dan Ryan is a former minor league baseball coach who retired in 1971 after a moderately successful career to fight his disease. When he found out his disease was terminal, he went on a long fishing trip, saw a few baseball games, and tried to enjoy his last few months. Eventually, last month, he checked into hospital for what he knew would be the last time, and is deteriorating fast.<br/><hr/>Name: Miss Charlotte Angels<br/>Player: DASHENKA<br/>Age:  23<br/>Condition: OD, other poisoning, slight brain damage, organ failure, arrhythmia<br/>(http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r240/YulesRo/022.jpg)<br/><br/>Charlotte's in college, quite a hippie, and was at a party with some friends when she passed out. It turned out that what she'd been snorting wasn't speed, but heroin cut with something else - the results from the blood test aren't back yet, and will take another week or so. Whatever she took has ravaged her kidneys and liver, with her kidneys failing intermittently, liver barely functioning and enough brain damage to slur her speech, give her trouble thinking and add headaches to the constant pain she's feeling from the rest of her poisoned system. Her heart function is impaired, and she's barely conscious and in pain. The doctors don't fancy her chances.<br/><hr/><strong>Character Name</strong>: Bambi Martin<br/><strong>Player Name:</strong>ZILLAH<br/><strong>Position:</strong>Patient<br/><strong>Appearance:</strong><br/><br/>(http://www.emeraldlich.com/uploads/Bambi.jpg)<br/><br/><strong>Age:</strong>27<br/><strong>Height</strong>: 5’ 3”<br/><strong>Weight:</strong>109 lbs.<br/><strong>Condition/symptoms:</strong>Bouts of nausea, elevated heart rate, faintness, muscle cramping, panic attacks<br/><br/><strong>Background:</strong>Bambi is a former cheerleader from the University of Texas who became a flight stewardess for Delta Airlines. She’s a sweet girl who loves to party … and who unfortunately has a knack for attracting trouble. She’s also not terribly smart, and gets by in life completely on her looks and bubbly personality … her kinder friends would probably say she’s as sharp as a bag of wet mice.<br/><br/>Her latest bout of trouble is her boyfriend, Ricco Gagliano, a low-level thug and drug dealer in the Lucchiese crime family. Bambi knows that Ricco is involved somehow in crime, but that doesn’t particularly bother her – she doesn’t know that she’s dating a “made guy”, though, only that he’s a bad boy, which she finds exciting. Even though he’s married, and he generally treats her like crap, passing her around like a party favor to some of his friends when they do good work for him.<br/><br/>Lately, she’s been even more excited because he’s let her “help” him … she flies the New York/Miami route for Delta, and of late she’s been delivering small baggies of cocaine and heroin for him as a drug mule, either hidden in her rectum or her hoo-hah when she flies. “It’s like being in a movie, except it’s not!” is how she happily describes her delving into crime to her head-scratching girlfriends … the same head-scratching girlfriends Ricco specifically told her not to mention her illicit activities to, except, well, she forgot.<br/><br/>Over the past few days, Bambi’s being feeling rather sick, and nearly collapsed on her most recent flight from Miami back to New York. At one of her girlfriend’s urging, she came to Calvin Coolidge hospital, hoping for “a pill or something” that would take care of her growing list of ailments.<br/><hr/><div class="floatleft">(http://www.colleencorby.net/colleen1973/catalogs1973/images/colleen-corby-jcpenney-1973-spring-summer2.jpg)</div>Name: Mrs. Vanessa Golding<br/>Player: AMELIA<br/>Age:  23<br/>Condition: Chronic headaches, repeated injuries to arms and chest, identity confusions, fluid in the chest<br/><br/>The very young married Mrs. Golding came in after several earlier visits, this time suffering from severe identity confusion and refusing to acknowledge her given name. She insists on going by Miss June, and denies any connection to Mr. Golding who has been kindly asked to stay away from Coolidge during her stay as his presence seems to make her condition worse. She complains about heavy, pulsing headaches and can hardly lie still because of them, despite the painkillers she's been given, and without there being an obvious cause of the headaches. Her right arm is still healing from a fracture and her left arm is hurting from elbow to little finger. There are several bruises on her chest. She has had fluid drained from her thoracic cavity and still has the surgical tube hanging out of her chest and dripping into a bag.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><hr/><div class="floatleft">(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v335/iconofroses/wheelerambrosio-1.jpg)</div>Name: Anna Belle Lewis<br/>Player: MOIRAE<br/>Age: 20<br/>Height: 5'9"<br/>Weight: 140 lbs<br/>Occupation: College student, part-time bookstore clerk.<br/><br/>Conditions: Rushed from her nearby apartment in an ambulance, still dressed in her night clothes, with reports of sharp throbbing pain in her lower abdomen.  After a quick check, she has been rushed up to immediately see The Fat Man.  Has been crying and whimpering throughout the entire time, though nothing too hysterical.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><hr/><strong>Character Name :</strong>Bill "Harley" Burpleson<br/><strong>Played by :</strong>RAMSTER<br/><strong>Age :</strong>44<br/><strong>Height :</strong>5'11<br/><strong>Weight :</strong>285 lbs<br/><strong>Condition:</strong>Amputated right leg, broken ribs and forearms, crushed testicles, ruptured spleen, advanced liver cirrhosis, miscellaneous other complaints after motorcycle accident<br/><br/>(http://www.hells-angels-rochester.com/images/blackfoot.jpg)<br/><br/><strong>Background:</strong>Bill "Harley" Burpleson is the deputy leader of the local Hells Angels chapter. Or, at least, he was. He's currently in no condition to organise local drug deals and acts of violence, following a head on collision with a truck during a motorcycle drag race on the freeway. Barely conscious, he is rushed to Coolidge Memorial for extensive emergency surgery. Once reasonably stable, he is moved to B Ward to treat the considerable cirrhosis found on his liver from three decades of ridiculous drinking. It's an optimistic bet at keeping him alive at best. Expect him to receive lively guests during visiting hour - if he makes it that long.<br/><br/>Bill is something of a local celebrity, having made the news just 8 months ago after he stood trial for a string of gang-related killings, and was acquitted of all charges after a controversial and sensationalised court case.
