In the Emergency Room

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! It looks like I will not be able to volunteer at PAWS Cat City this afternoon. The reason is I am currently in the hospital. Specifically, I am in the emergency room. I am in the emergency room because I tripped over my cat, Billie and ended up hitting my head on the corner of my kitchen counter. I thankfully didn’t lose consciousness, but I am really glad that my friend was with me when it happened. I do have a big gash on my forehead that needed stitches. I had a couple of tests done like a CT scan and an MRI to make sure nothing major is going on in my brain. The doctors do suspect that I have a concussion, and I really hope that is all I have. Yes, I know concussions are bad but if that is all I have on top of a gash in my forehead with stitched then I will take it.

I do not have anything else to discuss or share or to write about in this particular blog post except I hope that I get discharged from the emergency room sooner than later and that I only have minor concussion with a gash in my forehead that has stitches. I do want to thank you the reader for reading my blog. It is greatly appreciated from my end of things that you the reader, read my blog. If it was not for you the reader, reading my blog I would not be continuing to write my blog. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my blog. Peace Out, World!!!

Just A Brief Blog For Now

Posted on by Gertie

     As I am blogging this Tuesday evening I am sitting in the Emergency Room waiting room because my dad had a seizure. Right now he is getting a MRI. I have had many MRI’s and they are not fun. I’m in the waiting room of the E.R because it’s the only place I can get Wi-Fi. I told my dad that when he gets back to the room to let his nurse know so she can come get me. In fact his nurse if friend of mine from the high school I graduated from. She was one of the few people who stuck up for me in high school when I got bullied. She also helped me with my homework. More or less she tutored me. Now back to my dad. I think he will be okay. Their is the possibility that he might have to stay overnight for observation. He usually does stay over for observation when he has a seizure. My dad has had a multitude of test so far this evening due to his seizure. I hope they just make up their minds if they are going to keep or let him go.

     In fact I was suppose to go to a baseball game this even with a friend but my dad ended up in the E.R and well he is more important than a baseball game. My friend understands and was able to find someone else go with her on such short notice. I am grateful that she was able to find someone on such notice because then her money isn’t wasted.

     Well I best be going. I hope to blog later on when I am home. I hope to let you know how my dad is doing. I love my dad so much. He raised me with the help of my grandparents. I will blog again later. Peace out and enjoy the summer.
