30 Days of Truth: Day 6

Ok, so I'm a bit late in posting today but everything got put on hold today until I finished Fable III. Yup, and that means I'll be serving up Sunday Dinner at 11:30pm! I figure that as long as I can slip this post in before midnight it still counts right? Right...

Day 6: Something you hope you never have to do.

I hope that I'll never have to spend an extended period of time in a hospital or similar institution. When I was 15 I spent three days in hospital having my appendix removed. I've never been so miserable in my life. I couldn't get out of bed because I was recovering from surgery and the only human contact I had was when people came to visit, which wasn't often. The ward I stayed on had phones by each bed but they turned off after 10pm and any phonecalls after that time were diverted to an answering machine. On my last night I was waiting for a phonecall from my Dad and he didn't call until a couple minutes past 10pm. I cried listening to the message because I was so lonely and frustrated. I was so happy to be released the next morning I nearly jumped on the bus there and then. I hope I never have to go through something like that ever again. I was only in hospital for three days and it was awful enough. I can't imagine how horrible it would be if I was admitted for anything more serious.

I'm writing my 30 Days of Truth. If you are writing yours, let me know so I can follow along!
