So it turned out to be something more serious than strep throat, dum dum dummmmmmm: Mononucleosis. And my toncils where so swollen that they had a few doctors come check me out and all of them seemed surprised at the size of those badboys. So they admitted me, because they wanted to keep a close eye of my vitals and make sure I didn't run into troubles breathing.
Spent all of friday and most of today in the hospital, getting pumped with the lastest and greatest liquids. Was supposed to be in there till at least sunday, but I responded to treatment well. So I'm out, with some meds to take, pain killers, antis, steriods (not of the nut shrinking variety). What sucks bigtime is the little I'm been able to eat recently. Lost probably 10 pounds in the last 2 1/2 weeks alone. And not I'm not allowed to lift, play b-ball or the like for 3-4 weeks. BOOO BOOO.
Just as I was signing the release papers, Karen showed out along with her sister and her sister's boyfriend. She brought me a card and a stuffed lion (which I've name GRR McKRR). Soooo sweet, like that lady too much <3 Sucks I wasn't able to spend much time talking to her though, i was drugged up to the max, and they were sending me home.
Carlos, Edmundo, Cindy, Rolando and Dez showed up as well, but a few hours after I was already let go. They took pictures in my room and on my bed and shit, haha nice. So they came by my house for a little bit. They brought me a teddy bear, named Barry. GRR McKRR and Barry will procreate. I havent seen most of my friends in like over month because of the bad flu I had, then this mono crap. Very cool of them to show up, it felt great, and I appreciated it a lot.
