Status Updates From Il terminale uomo

8/13: the procedure has been completed in Benson and we’ve met a new guy who is eager to have the same procedure. They call him an ELAD (electricity addict). I wonder if he will become the antagonist of this story or if Benson will. The psychiatrist on the team is frustrated that her warnings were ignored, we shall see if her frustration is warranted.

8/6: ok so we’ve met Benson and the medical team attempting this novel operation on him. He’s being labeled as having a personality disorder (not sure which one…maybe schizoid given the delusion that computers are overtaking the world?) and some type of epilepsy that predisposes him to violent episodes. The psychiatrist is opposed to the endeavor but the neurologists are hellbent. We shall see what comes.
