College Happenings

Ahh there is nothing like a nice visit to the emergency room at 10:30 pm. Especially after a day of puking your guts out. Now that is what I call a great Sunday.

Yesterday I could not stop getting sick. So finally after taking medicine and having nothing work I had Chris call the Dr.

Come to the emergency room he said.

Just becuase you think it is an emergency, doesn’t mean that everyone at the hospital will.

When we got there, all I wanted to do was lay down, but they make you throw up a few more times and wait about a half hour before they get to you.

I finally got to a room and they began sticking me with needles and hooking me up to machines.

I don’t mind that stuff, hook me up to all you want just make me stop puking.

At about midnight I started feeling better. They gave me three bags of fluid and ani-nausea stuff.

Then they had to run tests and that takes forever.

Chris was wonderful and patient, untill about 3:30 am. We were still there and I was starting to feel sick again. I just wanted to go home and sleep.

Chris started getting really crabby and tired. I wanted him to be able to sleep too.

Eventually the Dr. came back and said I could go. I didn’t care how I was feeling anymore, I just wanted to get home.

As soon as we got home I got sick again. I thought Chris was going to freak out. I told him I was fine and to go to sleep.

Thankfully he did. I was also able to get to sleep and start feeling better. Still totally zapped of energy, but not puking on myself.

Chris was super crabby today. Now he is sick. I would rather myself be sick than him. He is crabby when he is sick. I always tell him that crabby is my role, patience and kindess is his.

I guess it is only fair that I switch sometimes.
