Slice of Life Challenge # 16 of 15 ish

       Unfortunately, I was unable to join you fine people at school today because I spent my entire morning in the hospital. I went to the hospital earlier this week because my body hadn't been working the way it should and they suspected it was due to lack of insulin production and a hormone imbalance, so today was spent drinking tons of water and a couple different lab tests. After two bottles of water, a cup of hot chocolate and two failed attempts I was able to get a successful ultrasound done. That was crazy difficult because having the woman push on my bladder was causing me to "panic laugh" because I was scared I'd pee my pants. This slowed down the process because my laughter was making the picture move. They then tried taking my blood which also took forever because the first woman couldn't find a vein. I then jokingly mentioned to my mom that I would never make it as a heroin addict, she laughed which made me happy because I knew that the joke would go either of two ways. After I was poked and jabbed four times, we tried with another woman and she was able to get all ten vials of blood in a single prick. The first woman who tried to take my blood ended up talking to my mom about wrestling because it was Chase Peavler's step-mom while I was getting my blood drawn by Molly. Once that was all done, it was around noon and my mom had some errands to do in Anderson anyway so we stopped by Panda Express and picked up paint for the living room. While I missed some fun activities at school, I've decided that today wasn't half bad after all.
