First ER visit

I went to the ER this morning, because my stomach bug didn't leave.  I have a bacterial infection.  This was the first time I've visited this hospital since my husband died.  This was his hospital, he worked at for 17 years, and it was the first time I've gone to the ER without him.  It really sucks.  They had him as my emergency contact and I had to change it to my mom.  I'm glad it was the weekend and nobody knew him that was there.
I drove myself, and nobody knew except at work.  My grandaughter called for me  and found out, she got upset and called my daughter.  I didn't want to call people at 6am.  I was supposed to go to a birthday costume party tonight, I'll miss.  If I didn't work with food, I'd be able to work.  I hope I didn't get this from the waterpark, last week.  They said it could have come from anything.

Just another thing to over come when will the firsts end. My daughter is having surgery on Monday at the same hospital that her father died in just 4 months ago. I am glad that all you have is a bacterial infection. Those can be cured with antibiotics. Diane

I hope this passes quickly. Take it easy and rest. It is so hard for us to do that though. I had to take someone to the same hospital where he died on the first anniversary of his death and it almost did me in. Mary Anne

Hope you start feeling better soon. It must have been so hard to go there for the first time. Glad to hear the kids are there for you. It is a sad reality when you have to make that change to your next of kin contact, surreal. Hug, Donna
