Catie + I arrived at 1030 pm and were more than ready to make up for lost time. We had a fun, grown up evening and when we arrived home hours later, Lindsay's little sister had fallen and hit her head. Blood was gushing everywhere and she was not entirely sure how she had fallen. She had not gone out with us that evening and had simply woken up from her slumber and fell on the way to bathroom. Being the awesome second year medical student that I am, I did a neurological exam on Alyssa and she appeared fine. But also being an awesome second year medical student, I decided that Alyssa could be hemorrhaging and dying at any moment, so off to the hospital Alyssa and I went. We left Lindsay behind for good reasons. The next 6+ hours were awesome. Jk. Considering it was my first experience in an ER on the patient's side, I was very suprised that all the complaints that people have about ERs were REALLY true.
Luckily we went because it turned out Alyssa needed 6 stitches.
We left the hospital in the daylight at 10 am and then slept all day long...
