Bite of Seattle Bites Back – July 21 & 22

Well, the 21st got off to a rough start. About 11pm I started feeling really ill. Had George haul me into the hospital. They gave me a shot for the pain – morphine was definitely mi friend. We figure something from The Bite of Seattle bit back – it sure looked like food poisoning. Slept most of the day. The next afternoon, one the pain killer and anti nausea drugs wore off – it was the same story. This time into the urgent care clinic in Cle Elem – where I got way better care. They did a full battery of blood work, gave me the same shot, and sent me on my way with instructions to get myself over to Overlake Hospital (on the other side of the mountain – in the Seattle area) if the pain came back. Expecting that I’d be visiting the hospital – George rearranged his flight home from Tuesday to Thursday.
And, it never came back. Shrug. I did get the panels back from the urgent care clinic – which showed the liver panel off – so I need to see my GP when I get home. Naturally, if George hadn’t rearranged everything – I’d have had to go to the hospital. Pthththt. Well, at least it happened at The Woods where there was lots of support coverage for the boys and Taiko.
