A Day In The E.R.

On Monday January 15th Jamie asked me to take her to the ER. She had been having pain for the last 5 days. When we got their the waiting room had only two other people. I thought this will not take very long. Faomous last words. We did not get in until 1 o'clock. We got their at 9. Needless to say the rest was downhill. The ER was so packed they had people everywhere. The ambulances just kept coming. They were lined up and down the hallway. It got so bad that no visitors were allowed in the ER. They had closed the ER at Antelope Vallley Hospital, so they were all beening sent to Lancaster Hospital, where we were. It was a night mare. They finally decided to admitt Jamie and we got a room at 8:30 pm. They thought it was her galbladder so they went in down her thoart and cleaned out the slug. She was in the hospital until Thrusday night. They di d not remover it. She is still in pain and on medication. They were really concerned about the levels of her red and white blood cells. They were below normal. They always have been. They are trying to get her records from Children's Hospital when she was younger and had all that trouble with her spline and liver. She will have a test on those later this week. So in the meantime we just sit and wait. Hopefully will have some news shortly after the test. Will keep you posted.
