Wiki information on Kingdom Hospital
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_Hospital

There is a book called The Journals Of Eleanor Druse about the Kingdom Hospital occurrences. This book was written by Richard Dooling pen name Eleanor Druse http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Dooling http://www.dooling.com/. The book is listed with Eleanor Druse and Stephen King as the authors. The author(s) present this book as a truthful account of the incidents there but it is a book of fiction. The "journal" even begins with a cover letter addressed to Stephen King, which gives the look of an actual journal. While reading this book, I felt like I knew Sally Druse, Bobby (her son), the orderlies, and all of the doctors in the hospital. Surprisingly, the author made me laugh a few times considering it was supposed to be about something horrific. Basically, Eleanor Druse (Sally), is a physic that is concerned for a child that she hears crying during a visit to the hospital. When she realises she is not a child of this world she decides to help her to cross over. When Sally was at Kingdom Hospital as a child she narrowly avoids being permanetly rewired in an experiment that could have changed her whole life, as it does Madeline Kruger's. She uncovers many disturbing facts about Kingdom Hospital, and its past. Read it. I posed the question about the authors to the Moderator at StephenKing.com and the answer was that since Stephen King came up with the concept for the book he got credit for it.

Digging into interviews and stories about Stephen King's near-fatal accident

Link to the story in the New Yorker written a while ago by Stephen himself On Impact accounting the details of his accident. If you read both articles you will see some very weird (to say the least) coincidences and interesting information about Kingdom Hospital and how it relates to his accident. What an inspiring article!

This is the link to the song that Stephen mentions in the article.

This is the town where the accident occurred,(along Route 5, North Lovell) this is where SK's summer house is located.
