It's been a bad few days.
Beloved family member died. Grieving hard.
Just got back from the ER. Diverticulitis and another secondary infection. Real bad pain.
Got a shitload of IV morphine.
I'm on two blood thinners and the hole where my IV was blew out after they removed it, and after the nurse left the room. I didn't notice it for about 30 seconds.
No lie...I've never seen so much blood in person in my life. It got over everything in the room. I was in my underwear (in the process of putting my street clothes back on after discharge instructions) and had to stick my head out the door and yell "HELP"!
Three nurses came in and they simultaneously said "HOLY SHIT". My white socks are now red. Lost so much blood that I got woozy.
I have pictures, but I can't post them because they would get juried for being gore.
That's all I have for today.
THE END
