im supposed to be dead

So I'm totally supposed to be dead right now...
scary
so here is the backup story... for a long time i have been feeling pain in my lower abdomen but only on the right side....
I was super sick for a week and a half, I started to get better and the pain didnt go away, so i scheduled an appointment at the health center... i make it to my appointment I wait for like a half an hour and who should come out to be my nurse, but this midget... and i dont just mean short... she was short and proportioned like a midget. so already I'm like hmm... okay... interesting.... I tell the lady i have been feeling pain in my lower right abdomen and I suspect it might be an ovarian cyst because I have all the symptoms. she tells me that since I'm on the shot, I am not ovulating so I cant possible have an ovarian cyst. I told her that I had had my period before when I was shot and that it was about the same time in the three month period as now. She sais, well maybe you have a bladder infection... I'm like lady my cooter is fine it's my lower right abdomen. So she tells me she is going to give me a pelvic exam. now for the guys that dont know how this works i wont give all the gorey detais but when not done with some consideration this can hurt... well obviously this lady is pissed at the world about being a midget or something because damn... she pretty much ripped me up inside. and usually they put this sheet over your lap and sit down there and tell you what they are going to do and walk you through it and look at you when they are talking to you... well this lady was standing and i couldnt even see her. EEEEP!
so she uses the largest speculum she has which is like the freaking jaws of life and doesnt even warn me when she is going to start. well.... i leave and THE NEXT DAY I start my period... this just happens to be Valentines day god damnit. my period last for a week and a half. and to top it all off the lady sends me this thing in the mail that is like well you dont have chlamydia, shyphylis, or ghonorea (I have no idea how to spell any of those three words so I apologize) and i'm like oh great lady thats what i was worried about

the pain increases

skyler pretty much forces me to go to the health center again, but the day i go the only lady is midget lady so i decide to go the next day with someone else... she lays me down touches my stomach in just the right spot and i almost screamed. she tells me she thinks i have appendicitus and i need to go to the hospital... like now... its 10:30 and she says i have to be to the ER by 1
i get there... they take 2 hours in the ER room, they almost give me another pelvic but they take me to get an ultrasound first and turns out I do have appendicitus and I have surgery in two hours... this was thursday
they tell me if your appendix has ruptured you could be here from 5-7 days, if it hasnt 3-4
wanna know what it did do?
turns out my appendix ruptured quite awhile ago(days to weeks my surgeon says) and my body had formed this huge amount of protective tissue and fluids to keep the toxins from killing me... but sinceit did that it forned itself to my large intestines and they had to cvut out 6 inches of my large intestines as well as my bigger than a baseball smaller then a softball mass of tissue, poisons, and appendix. yeah a surgery that should have taken 45 minutes-ish took a little over two hours.
the surgeons says that she is surprised I am alive and that angels are watching over me... funny thing skyler kyrie and morgan are sort of my angels
so now i'm home on a lot of medication and slouched like a mother fucker... how was everyone elses weekends?
oh and thank you to larry, shawn, harry, ira, tyler, skylers mom Kim, morgan, bethany, seven, kory, cole, thai, brittney, allyssa, rose, my mom, gramma, grandpa, uncle aaron, aunt amy, sister carly and whoever else i was too doped up to remember for visiting me... and thanks to skyler for making me get off my ass and not die as well as spending almost every waking moment with me in the hospital
