Sick.

It's time for the 411! I'm Jessi, and I'm also staying home from school today. I'm sick! Although I got to chat with my Auntie on IM, my tummy was killing me! I got up in the middle of the night just to wake up to the surprise of my jaw tightening up. My stomach was turning and it felt like there was boiling water inside me! I rushed to the bathroom, thinking how this was gonna turn out, and pucked! Not the best taste in the world either! It was coming out of my nose too!! I felt like I couldn't breath! I walked into my parents room just to announce to my mom that I had just pucked. She gave me TUMS, and she made me a bagel. I sat on the floor nibbling on it piece by piece with my mom there sitting with me the whole time. I didn't even eat half of the bagel thinking that it would do the trick, but it only made it worse. I puked a couple more times, going through that horrid stage of up-chucking bagel bits! I took another TUMS pill, and mom asked if I wanted to sleep downstairs. I did. Then, she gave me a bowl, just in case I couldn't make it to the bathroom in time, and gave me a box of tissues for that horrible gunk-in-the-nose thing. Afterwards, she tucked me in on the couch, and went to bed. Although I stayed up trying to figure out what to do with my nose, I was tired and soon fell asleep.


In the morning, when it was time to get ready for school, dad woke me up, and asked if I wanted to go to school. I thought about how my stomach hurt and was tight. It was twisting and turning inside of me only to the feeling of it getting worse. I said no, and headed upstairs very tired from the late night action that went on only a couple hours ago. I went to bed and stayed asleep until 9:00, so I slept for almost 3 hours. When I woke up, I went back down on the couch, forced down a little more food hoping it wouldn't come back up. Then, I got some carbon in my stomach to help settle it. Then I tried to turn on the computer but it wouldn't start up, so I finished a book I was reading. It felt nice to get that out of the way. When the computer finally started up, I was on it all day IM-ing my aunt, until my sisters got home from school. I hoped that it would be the end of my horrible sickness!
