they tried to take out my stomach by "accident" and they thought they might have punctured by bowel, the docot said to me the next day "you gave me quite a scare" as in "you died and we brought you back to life"

an over night stay turned into 2 weeks i wasnt aloud to eat or drink..i was sick everynight and day vomiting up
bright green fluid, from my drip...of morphine. and told me not to give back the sick bags untill they were almost full ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!

it was 2 weeks of pure hell.
