Out of ICU

This is a little tough to write. So I'm in the hospital, just after being in for over 30 days. I had one of the worst pains in my chest on Friday that I have ever felt. I hurt all across the top of my lungs and all down the sides. I couldn't take in a deep breath so I couldn't breath in any medicines that might have helped. It was scary and I'm not used to not being able to take care of my health troubles, at least do something that would give me a chance. The bad feeling of we can do nothing for you and the suffering went on. It would go off and then come back suddenly. We didn't know what to do and we didn't make up our mind for about 2 hours. My parents got really tired as they kept getting woken up. So we went to the Emergency Room and they immediately put me in the ICU room. My carbon dioxide was too high - 87 %.I spent 3 days in ICU and they had great doctors and great nurses. All the help in ICU are like 5-star hotel employees. It made a tough situation much easier.



This will be my last blog with my words written by me. My mom and my sister will be typing temporarily until I get a little stronger. It just seems like more sense to get their observations because some days I don't feel well enough to blog, but I want to get out a blog everyday.


I moved out of ICU. It was like moving out of the Peninsula in Chicago into a Hilton Garden Inn.
I'm in a regular hospital room now.

Thanks to all of you who have been thinking of me. I'm just going to be trying my hardest.
