Tonsil Complications

Welcome to the journal of America! On Easter I was doing really good with the whole getting better with my tonsillectomy. I got bored, and I was doing great. I was feeling really good, having fun and all that good junk. Only in the early morning, I woke up around three thirty. I thought I was simply just puking my supper of mac and cheese back up, so I swallowed it. Only, then it came back up, I swallowed it again, it came up again, so I went to the bathroom. I looked in the mirror, and there was blood coming from my mouth. I rushed to the toilet and started spitting up blood, and it was running out of my nose too. Big huge icky globs were coming from my throat too. I woke up my mom, and she woke up my sister. Then, when it slowed down a little bit, Mom took me to the ER. There they said my scab must have came off, and I was bleeding uncontrollably. They stuck TWO IVs in my arm and hand, and put ice on my throat, and had me gurgle ice water. They called a life flight helicopter from Casper to come and get me! I was scared to death!!!!! :( They came and got me, the helicopter ride was SOOOOOOO cool!!!!! I got to look out the window, only they bundled me up into a cocoon, and I couldn't even move! My mom got to sit in the cock pit with the pilot, he told her she couldn't touch anything! So Mom sat really still. lol. :) Then, when we landed, I stopped bleeding!!! Ya. Then they said that I had to stay overnight so they could watch me. Then, today I got to go home, and I feel really good now. IT IS MY DOG'S BIRTHDAY!!!!! He is eight. His name is Hoss, I love him to death!! Well, now you know my "fun" experience. Well, see ya!!!!!!! :)
