......glad YOU were hydrated today

your body dehydrated!

oh my baby! it all started last night he said he had a really bad headache, stomach ache and chest pain. i wanted to take him to er last night, but he said it wasn't "that bad". this morning i couldn't get him to get up. i called trinidad and he told me that tyler sent him a text saying that he was really hurting. i called kaiser and because his abdominal pain was "severe" they transferred me to an er nurse. kennedy was hearing me on the phone and she got really worried, so she and i prayed for her brother. well, over 40 minutes later a nurse got on the phone and asked to speak to tyler. after, tyler hands me the phone and she tells me if he cannot be seen within 2 hours i had to take him to the er. his pcp got him in right away. by this time trinidad came home becasue i had to conduct a meeting today. they took off to kaiser and i went to work. i text trinidad about an hour later and what i got back was "ambulance to kaiser" (hospital/er)..... the next text.... "starting ekg".... needless to say i got all my bases covered and i was gone! thoughts and prayers running through my mind... oh, my gosh what have i done..... i should have taken him to the er last night.... heavenly father please be with the hands that are taking care of my son... i made it to tyler and that's when i found out what caused the ambulance to be ordered... the doctor was concerned with the chest pain and ordered stat labs and xrays. after tyler gave blood he had a major anxiety attack. trinidad could see that he was starting to go, so he kept (manhandled) tyler in the wheelchair, tyler was fighting to get up, his legs were shaking, he became non-responsive, eyes rolled to the back of his head and he was out! trinidad said like 3 nurses came and took over the situation. they busted out the smelling salt, but from what it sounds like, it took tyler awhile to snap out of it (tyler remembers nothing!). anyway, at the er they had him hooked up to everything and he was green! they took like 6 more tubes of blood and ordered 2 chest xrays..... 3 bags of saline and hours later he was feeling better... starving, but better. outcome.... dehydration!!!!!

your body after a sedative and some saline!
silly kid
