Adventures of life: At the ER
For the last few day's, I hadn't been eating or drinking almost anything. So when I woke up yesterday with a racing heart, Mom finally decided to bring me to the doctor. The doctor then sent us to the ER for a CT scan. The doctor at the ER said that I didn't need a CT, but he did give me an IV. They put something like a tiny straw in my arm, and did some bloodwork before hooking me up, all with one poke! I was thankful for that. One was enough for me. I spent about 2 hours on a bag of salt water, and then about another half hour on another bag with some sugar in it. Then they made me drink some apple juice, and then let us go. I then learned outside from the security guard (who was very friendly) that they still did have a helicopter landing about once every two days. Then we made it home, where Mom then had some cheese and crackers as "breakfast". So overall it was a very interesting day. And I'm still home from school today. Hopefully I'll be back by Friday.

Gatorade in a bag! Amazing how a little salt water can perk a guy up! Now you just need to remember how to eat and drink by yourself.
