The words I was hoping to hear - You have a bad case of the flu, we're going to push some IV rehydration and keep you here for observation and run some tests. The words that I actual heard: Your brain is bleeding, we've called Careflite? WTF??? It couldn't just be the flu?

I remember Mama Cheryl being on the phone and telling me that the doctors at Presby Dallas were great and all was going to be OK and that I just had to calm down and know that I was in good hands... there was something so comforting in having that -- even if part of me was thinking, she is lying thru her teeth.. but mostly since she do...
