We're people, too.
Filed under: Nursing
So today I was on hospital duty, and then I got sick.
Kinda ironic, isn't it. I'm a nurse, who gets sick, in a hospital. I rushed to the ER crying because of a tummyache that makes me tremble in my knees and leaves me all hot and cold. (Like that Kate Perry song. Anyway.)
The nurses and doctors were very nice about. I bet they feel sorry for me. The doctor gave me a shot in my left arm. I was so scared, really. You'd think after three years of poking people with a needle and a few months' stint in a blood bank, I wouldn't be scared of sharpies... Oh boy are you wrong.
And now the tummy pain is gone, but I'm feeling really woozy. So that explains the hurling-vomit-themed image on my new layout, and yes that's a person doing the lotus pose while wearing a nurse's cap.
Ooh. And I'm feeling kinda Happy! Happy! Joy! Joy! right now. Real bright and shiny. "I'm so bright and shiny, I'm Mary freakin' Poppins!" kind of happy.
Or maybe it's the meds. Meh. No wonder people do drugs.
XOXO,

Kahit ilang beses na tayo nagtuturok, medyo traumatic pa rin makita ang karayom.
Although di naman ako takot sa turok... mas takot ako sa--gahhh! Freaking ampule!
Nag-open kasi ako dati, with a tissue ah... tapos yung shard na nagawa after breaking it, natusok sa daliri ko. Ayun, hiwa yung index finger ko and it won't stop bleeding. Kaya pag nagbubukas ako ng ampule ngayon, natatawa yung CI ko kasi nadudurog ko yung top part. Ewan ko lang kung dahil sa inis o dahil sa kaba. Wahaha!
Btw, ano naman naging diagnosis sa yo? Intestinal flu ba?

Dyspepsia, I think. Or I ate a bad salad. Walang final diagnosis, SOAPIE lang ang ginawa ng doctor.
