This round of "emergencies" began with a bladder infection which shut
down my kidneys ... that's scary - cuz when your kidneys die so does
the rest of you.
They fixed that with a massive dose of antibiotics. Which also woke
the kidneyd. but led to the second trip to the ER.
The antibiotic used caused a bout of "antibiotic diarrhoea" which in
its turn caused an anal bleed and I very nearly bled out. I was told
that after the 8th bag of blood was put into the filler tube.
Then came a bout with pneumonia which, thankfully, was not CoVid.
Followed on by a collapsed lung. Then this latest trip to the ER. Much
to the chagrin of my remaining enemies I'm still here. No plans to check
out any time soon. Bv)=
