Hospital... ha ha... yeah

This week has been... interesting, to say the least. It didn't go exactly as planned, but I am making the most of it! I was admitted to Primary Children's Medical Center on Friday, and had a PICC line placed on Saturday. I'm enjoying the whole photography thing, it's just great! I'm leaving for my cruise on Sunday next week, and as luck would have it, I'm leaving the hospital on Friday! :D This cruise is going to be so much fun... even if I do have a PICC line for it. 

 

I've decided, anesthetics and lidocaine are my 2 new favorite things in this world! My biggest fear in the world is an IV (not really, but I HATE HATE HATE them, with a burning passion). They found this new technology, where they shoot lidocaine into your hand, or arm, wherever they decide to put the IV. It's crazy, because there's no pain whatsoever. It completely numbs the area, and then they put the IV in, and when they did it to me, I didn't feel a thing! That is my new best friend! That's how I made them take labs after they took my IV out. I wouldn't let them do it with the regular butterfly needle. I made them get the IV team to put another IV in, and draw blood that way... I never thought I'd say this, but I actually didn't mind getting an IV. Who knew I would actually ever request an IV? I love lidocaine... what can I say. It's wonderful... just wonderful! 

I'm so excited to get home, to get ready for my cruise! I'll continue to post about my stay... I've found some great means of entertainment... my new favorite hobby is duct tape... so far I've made a bag, and something else that I'll post a picture of, later. I think it just might deserve its own post! :)

Good night! Love you all!
