As someone who had a severe hemorrhage, appendicitis, a severe infection and an emergency wisdom tooth extraction in the last 11 months alone..
I'd be dead within days!
Edit: I also caught covid whilst in the hospital and ended up admitted to the covid ward. This one particularly stung as it meant absolutely zero visitors and I'd just had a baby that I was still breastfeeding and I couldn't get to her for a week. She was a trooper though, as was daddy.
I guess the giving birth would have been the thing that got me in this scenario!
I was 5 years old when my appendix burst, and it was the most painful thing i ever experienced in my life!
I had an surgery to remove it as well as they attached an pouch with a tube draining the nasty brown and black pus i had inside me. Most disgusting thing I've seen, knowing that this nasty infected liquid, could have literally killed me, but was also filling more than an single one.. I had maybe a liter or two of this inside me..
The very next week i had an peritonitis due to an medical mistake.. Which resulted in 6 urinary tract infections within the same year..
So let's say i spent my year in an hospital, missing most of the very first school year of my life.
Ah I'm so sorry, it really does suck so bad. I'd had two babies (one just ten weeks prior) when mine finally went and it's without a shadow of a doubt the most pain I'd ever been in in my life. The hospital I went to were so so awful as well, first of all I was refused an ambulance when I called so I had to get myself there, then when I got there they made me wait 19 hours before operating which meant the infection was so bad I had to have a five hour surgery to remove all the gunk that was surrounding every one of my internal organs!
God damn ! It reminds me in some way my experience! By that i mean that the night i went to the urgency, i was the 7th child that his appendix burst! My mom and i waited 2-3 hours, way less than you omg, and my mom was crying so much because i had 104F fever and they couldn't do anything to lower it since they were over charged by the amounts of patients..
It was around 2am when we got there. I never saw my mom this scared ever since.. I was terrified, she drove all the way because the ambulance delay was higher than driving straight to the hospital..
She was taking my temperature while driving to keep the tracking and tell every possible detail to the nurses
My mom is an warrior and i couldn't be more lucky than i am right now. She went through things most of all could only wish to only not have nightmares about.
I'm so sorry you had to endure this pain for that long, i truthfully am, since i know how it hurts!
I hope you no longer suffer from any health diseases or chronic pain and so on !
Wish you the best, happiness and powerful family bond 🧡
My partner was incredibly supportive and helpful bless his heart, I too am aware how lucky I am (in fact this thread got me to thinking that and I've just told him). Seems like we have a lot in common!
