Patient Problems
Almost died last weekend. Funny story.
But first, let me say that for too long, I was one of the healthy ones. Decades would go by. I’d get a sniffle, maybe, but that’s it. And it wasn’t anything some meditation, a subliminal tape and herbal tea couldn’t solve.
I touched on it earlier, too many antibiotics equals one upset tummy. Tried to work through it on my own and last Sunday realized there was no way around a trip to the emergency room. Then I was admitted and spent the next four days trying to get better despite the hospital’s lame ass food and one uncomfortable flex sig.
Not sure. One thing’s for certain – ain’t no pepto bismol curing this particular ailment.
I’m home now – going through helpful advice and then there’s this. Here’s to a happy ending.

That sounds like me,I just never get sick. I figure my body is just accumulating all these illinesses that should have happened to me over the years and one day I’ll just blow up.
Hurry up and get well. Your husband is waiting to tinker around with your new figure.
What a relief to hear that you are on the mend…sounds very scary!
xo

Feel better, Kate.

Yoiks,

Now that I know your OK, blow it out your ass… in a more solid and comfortable way.

Vox Populi- dudette, you are fucked. Voice of the people? How about voices of people? Listen to them in your head and stay inside. Away from sharp objects.
Glad you’re still around and getting better, Kate.
Don’t die, okay, because, let’s face it, you’ve put a lot of money into , well, you recently and you want to get a return on your investment.
Just wanted to send my good wishes your way for MUCH better health soon!
OMG, Kate. Here’s to a speedy recovery! I always knew you were full of sh*t, but geez…
What a scary time. Thank goodness you are ok now. Your CO family is pulling for you and can’t wait to see you soon! xo, M, S, and JS.
First thought: Hells bells. That’s too close of a call.
Second thought: Nice to see that the vegetarian diet is paying off.
