& the diagnosis is

(drumroll...) the Illness Formerly Known As Walking [or in this case pretty much lying down all the time & shuffling around a little bit] Pneumonia.

Getting lots of unfocussed reading done betweeen bouts of coughing and bouts of napping: Claire Tomalin's splendid Pepys biography; Delany's Dhalgren; everything by Ron Johnson.

Enough with the deathbed talk, Peter! Mark's not going anywhere.

As for you, Mark--, I'm glad to know you've been diagnosed at last. Ugly stuff, illness, but sometimes out-of-focus is the only way to go.
