Health!

After all of last post happened it was finally Monday and the school nurse was in! Still too weak to walk, I had Julian take me in a wheelchair to the UPMC. The streets here happen to be horrifying from that angle if you're wondering and almost being launched out of your chair by a curb with the knowledge that you would not be able to get up on your own is NOT GROOVY! But we get there and the doctor is baffled by me and can't figure out what I have. He called me back when my urine got back and there was nothing wrong with it. He called me when my blood was back and there was NOTHING WRONG WITH IT! And by that time I also had the hives so I was like screw it, I'm at my limit. It's Wednesday, it's Rosh Hashanah, I am getting better today. The nurse said if I had an I.V. for a little bit I'd be strong enough to take care of myself and get down to get my own food without almost blacking out. With that, I'd be able to get better from everything else with time so I went to the hospital by a cab the nurse had a voucher for and I had this cool driver from Ethiopia. He thought I was Muslim because I had my Rosh Hashanah babushka on and than when he told me he was from Ethiopia he was like, "do you even know where that is?" "Africa," I declared. After he saw his snideness had no effect on my shield of good humor he gave up. After having that I.V. for a little while I was feeling a lot better and I used the other cab voucher to get back and guess what? Another cool driver who happens to be a photographer and a graphic designer! We discussed my future and he was just uber chill. I was able to walk all the way to Dominos when I got back and I bought a thank you pizza for the people who helped me get food when I was too week to get it myself. I than proceeded to hang out with Ian and Kevin until one in the morning. I went back to my room feeling spunky and refreshed! I took a much needed shower and now, Thursday  I am doing my laundry and cleaning my room and than it's off to CVS to fill my prescriptions and get the nurse flowers. I have already, get this, FED MYSELF! I have a long day ahead of me though. While sick though, I did find a bunch of movies from my childhood on Netflix. Care-bears were so much cooler back then, I admit.
