Starting about three and a half weeks ago, I started having trouble keeping food down. By trouble, I mean NOTHING stayed down. After this went on for about a week, I went to the doctor who wanted me to get a catscan the next day. The catscan, which I got done on a Tuesday, showed gall stones, so on Wednesday I got my gall bladder removed. Other than pain from the surgery, I was fine for about two days following the surgery. Then, on Saturday, my food stopped staying down. I went to the ER on Sunday, and they couldn't figure it out so they let me go home. I felt awful on Monday, so I called the surgeon that did my procedure and he decided to admit me to the hospital. I ended up staying there for eleven days. This past Thursday, the doctors ran out of ideas and gave up. They said "you can throw up at home just as well as you can throw up here."
At this point, I have missed so much school that it would be virtually impossible for me to catch up, so I had to drop out for the semester. Right now I am still pretty sick, so I still can't work. But, when I'm better, I will get a job and then take some classes over the summer to try and catch up.
Now for some other, less boring topics:
DAN'S BIRTHDAY:
Other than me being insanely sick on his birthday weekend, it went really well. He really enjoyed the "special surprise" that some of you know about, and he was DEFINITELY surprised. We went to the Purdue vs. Illinois basketball game, and it was actually a lot of fun. Personally, I'm more of a football girl, so I was really surprised when I had more fun at the basketball game. The student section is great, it's nearly impossible to sit with them and not get into the game.
I do feel bad about Dan having to take care of me so much. He even went out to Walmart at 2 a.m. to get me soup and gatoraide. He's such a great guy, I am so, so lucky.
SUPER BOWL:
YES! YES! YES!!!! NEW ENGLAND CHOKED!!!!
Though I had to watch the game from my hospital bed, I have to say that it cheered me up...A LOT. I was pretty disappointed that the drugs knocked me out for the first half, but at least I saw the most important part. The second half was amazing, and I am still giddy about the Giant's win. To be completely honest, I absolutely HATE the Patriots. They are overrated cheaters, plain and simple. If they had won the super bowl and had the perfect season, I might have jumped out of my window. Actually, no I wouldn't, because then I wouldn't be around to see the Colts beat them next season.
Currently, I am watching the pro bowl...you know, the game that Tom Brady and Randy Moss dropped out of because they weren't man enough to be seen after their loss. Seriously, how immature can you get? Oh well, at least it adds to the Patriots stereotype, which includes but is not limited to: assholes, sore losers, sore winners, liars and cheaters.
Well, I think that's about it for now. Since I'm no longer in the hospital, I'll be on here a lot more. Have a great week!
