Photo Essay: 'Tanks' for the Rescue!

I was pretty sick and had hard time breathing when I arrived in Lima, Peru, from the States. Having hoped for speed recovery, I gotten even worse before finally kicked myself to a local hospital seeking the very much needed rescue.

While waiting for the doctor to stop by my small corner unit, I realized that I was surrounded by interesting elements that I've never found elsewhere, including person-like oxygen tanks clad in scrubs, 'who' were chained to the wall. Also, those bendable lighting poles that visually 'communicated' with the tanks...

Peruvian got a great sense of humor, I suspect. The inanimate object personification sort-of 'cured' my physical damage and all of the sudden I felt recharged and well. I must subconsciously told myself that if a tank could appear so alive and store that much oxygen inside, I must be able to be as alive as I could be and breath as much oxygen as I have access to. And it really worked.
