Hahahahahaha wow, and I thought eleven hours on a bus yesterday was bad. Sure shows me for complaining.

About a half hour after we tried to go to sleep last night, Kayla woke up pretty violently ill. It continued this way for a few hours until about 5:30 when Steve and I took her to the emergency room. Cue double-phobia: vomitting and hospitals. We've basically been there since then.

We thought she was just dehydrated at first, but it turns out she has pancreatitis. They need to keep her for a couple of days. Fuck if this was how I planned on spending my time up here, but right now I just want to be there for her as much as I can because she's sick as hell. Therein lies the many problems.

I can't stay over there, obviously. Visiting hours are from 1 to 8. That's it. More problems: Steve, who drove us, had to leave to go back to college. So he dropped me off here at Kayla's house where I am alone (except for her cat who I sobbed into as soon as I got back. Thank you, Cat Whose Name I Forgot.) with the idea that I'd call Kayla's friend Luke who'd bring me back to the hospital after I rested a bit and then maybe have him stay over here with me tonight. However, Luke did not answer his phone when I called, and Kayla's phone shut off halfway through the message before I could leave my number. I've searched her room but I can't find her charger. So I tried to reach her through the hospital, who put me through to like eight different lines, two of which told me "oh yes, she just got put in her room, we'll put you through" and one which ultimately informed me "she's just getting settled, the nurse wants you to call back in an hour." Additionally, my own phone is dying and I don't know what to tell my parents who are freaking out over this because I don't have a plan yet. They offered to come and pick me up, but I don't want to leave her alone. Kayla's dad isn't here, I don't know where he is, but from the way they sounded on the phone, I don't think he really has any intention of visiting her. I haven't even met him, I don't know if I feel comfortable staying alone with him tonight in the event I actually make it back to the hospital.

So basically, I have no fucking idea what to do. If there's anyone in the Boston/Boston suburbs area who could take me in tonight if I make it back to the hospital I'd be seriously indebted. Got it worked out, thank you.

This has been the worst day and I'm so fucking worried about her and I just want to be back with her because I hate that she's alone there. I haven't slept more than a half hour at a time or eaten a legit meal in over 24 hours at this point, and there's literally nothing to eat in her house. I might as well sleep until I can start trying to figure this out again, but I don't want to be in her bed alone. I think I'm going to sleep on the couch. Fuck this shit. Please keep her in your thoughts, hope that she gets better quickly and doesn't have to have tubes down her throat and into her stomach to re-regulate her pancreas manually. I'd like to have at least a day with her NOT in the hospital before I don't see her for another month.

crisis, kayla
