Stellan's Story

Im actually making an entry!! lol..


I DO try to make entries more often, but lately things have been SOOO damn busy that its been impossible. So I figured it was time to update everyone on some stuff that's been going on...

- The theatre is closing. [:(] That's my dance school and Jeremy's job as a teacher...so it was a double blow. Jeremy is taking it really hard because he LOVES teaching kids acting and improv, but we are looking into a few options that let him get another job AND still teach. As for me and dancing... I'm *considering* taking a SMALL break from it... maybe a semester? Im not sure yet. I just know it really has taken soo much out of me this year.

-I'm completely registered for college in the fall!! I'm so excited, I'm going for early childhood education.. and some of the classes are SO fun.. It's going to be a fun year. I'm going full time... 16 credits in the fall. Which is why I have to really sit down and see if dance can fit into my schedule right now. They are opening a new dance place in my hometown, so we might take a look into that when my daddy and cait are here.

-They will be here in 8 days!! SOO excited. I haven't seen them since March..and they are staying 2 weeks this time. [:)] We have alot of fun things planned, including my recital the day after they get here.

-Speaking of my recital...its in 9 days. omg. So nervous!! I've been working SOO hard lately, and next week is tech week..which means we will be there every single night. I know the dance..just still lacking the confidence to make it look amazing. But i'm working on it. :)

-I knew I had alot more to talk about..but I completely forgot all of it. lol...major blonde moment.

OHH, if anyone has twitter, follow me!

[color=#FF66FF]Well first I want to start by thanking Ashley for making an entry for me!!! Shes so great..lol.

As you guys heard from Ashleys entry, I had a pretty rough week. I decided to write out the whollllllllllee adventure, so beware, this will be a long entry.


It all started on Sunday. In the morning, we woke up and went to my parents house and met all my sisters there...we planted a bunch of new plants and flowers for my mom in her yard. We even planted 3 trees. We felt very accomplished. lol. I started feeling really tired and dizzy, but we blamed it on the sun, since it was hot and we were outside and all. So we went home, (Jeremy and I) and cleaned the house, got ready, etc. We made lunch, and I just could not keep anything down. And the more I threw up, the more a pain in my right side seemed to throb. I was positive I had thestomach flu.So I went to bed about 8:30pm, and woke up about 10pm covered in sweat... my fever had reached 103 and I had chills. So Jeremy decided it was time to go to the ER, so we got dressed and left.

OK our town is really small, so there is NEVER a wait in the ER waiting room, there's hardly ever anyone in there. But of course, the one day that I go in puking everywhere, 2 ambulances show up at the same time and I have to wait for an hr. grr... it was horrible, because I couldn't even stop throwing up long enough to give the guy the info of my insurance..it was ridiculous.[/color]

[color=#9966CC]So they called us back about midnight, and they immediately put an IV in and give me some phenerganfor nausea, and after about 2 or 3 doses I FINALLY stopped throwing up. They also gave me some pain medicine for the ache in my side, but it didnt work so eventually they gave me morphine which worked but had me feeling pretty loopy. They ran some blood tests..and found out that my white blood count was 17.6 The normal is 10. hrs ticked by, finally about 5am they started talking about transferring me to Sierra Vista, because its a much bigger hospital and they couldn't figure out what was wrong with me.

They said it would be a couple more hrs before they could get a different dr there, so we decided to wait it out, and Jeremy went home to sleep for a couple hrs.

Around 7:30am, they took me for an ultrasound, to see if maybe I had a cyst on my ovaries or something that was causing the pain. I kinda knew they found something...because the ultrasound tech kept taking pictures of the same thing over and over..but at that point, my fever was back and I had morphine in me so I didn't bother asking, I focused on staying awake.


They took me back to the ER, and my sister Candy was waiting there for me. She had taken a couple hrs off of work, and came to see what was going on. She stayed with me till about 10:30 or so, mostly keeping me company. [/color]

[color=#FF0033] The nurse came in, and quietly started filling out paperwork. We weren't too sure what she was doing, so we didn't pay too much attention. She then put in ANOTHER IV in my other arm, and said it was "just in case" it was needed. she also had me take my hair down, and sign a paper about blood transfusions. My sister was getting annoyed at this point because the nurse wasn't answering any of our questions as to WHY she was doing this stuff, she just kept saying"the dr will be in soon to talk to you and answer any questions"

when the dr came in, he said from the looks of the ultrasound, there was something wrong with my appendix, they just didn't know what because it was very hard to even find it. So they were going to do an
emergency surgery.

I was pretty scared. Jeremy showed up just as they were getting me into a gown, and he was pretty confused as well. After all, we were both positive I just had the stomach flu.

My sister called my mom, and she immediately got off of work and came, as well as Candys husband, Jose. They all waved to me as i was wheeled away to surgery... and everything after that is pretty fuzzy.[/color]


[color=#CC6633]Next thing I remember, I am in a hospital room, and my stomach hurts like hell. I was REALLY swollen, and I could feel where the cuts where, (one in my belly button, one on my side, and one at the waistband of my panties) The dr came in, and said my appendix was ready to rupture and they got there just in time. The whole day was pretty fuzzy, I was in and out of sleep. I do remember a lady coming in and giving me a breathing "toy", that I had to do 10 times every hr because I was very high risk for getting pneumonia. On top of EVERYTHING else Im going through.... pneumonia. can you believe it?

For some reason, (a reason we were never told) I could have anything by mouth until 24hrs after the surgery. Which means no water... so my throat was DRY and cracking and my lips were chapped, it was torture. They eventually brought me a tiny sponge to wet my mouth with.

I kept everyone updated through myspace and twitter from my cellphone..lol. so it helped the time go by quicker. My sissy also took me for walks around the hospital.

Monday night, my sister Roseanne went into labor. It really sucked because she was in a different hospital, so I wasnt able to see her or the baby. But I now have a new niece, Gabriella Joselyn. [:)]

On Tuesday night, my fever was back to 103 and we weren't sure why, and the nurses weren't really concerned with it, so my mom threatened to transfer to a different hospital if they weren't going to at least TRY to get it under control. They hadn't even given me tylenol to lower it, they just said try to sleep. My oxygen also dropped below 85, (its normally supposed to be in the high 90's or 100)so they put me on oxygen. My mom ended up sitting with me for 3 hrs dabbing a wet washcloth on my forehead.

After shift change, I got a new nurse and she was really nice, gave me some tylenol and brought me alot of popsicles to keep me cool. By Wednesday morning my fever was down to 99. I was released, and I went to my moms house for a few days until I was strong enough to walk up the stairs to go to my apartment. Im still having a really hard time breathing, and im really wheezy and coughing alot, so theres a very good chance I already have pneumonia. I have a follow up appt on tuesday, so we will find out for sure.[/color]

[color=#99CCCC] And that was my long adventure. lol. Sorry if the entry was too long ,I dont expect anyone to read the whole thing. I mostly wrote it so I would have it written down before i forgot. lol.

I keep losing subbies.[:(] I think its because I dont make entries too often...bleh. OH well. I only have like 5 now. haha.

Anyway- I have bronchitis again. [:(] It sucks soo majorly bad because my immune system is REALLY bad, and no matter how many vitamins I take, and how much I go out of my way to prevent being sick, I always catch something. the slightest cold or flu that would usually last a day or two, quickly escalades into bronchitis or pneumonia. It got so bad the other night that we went into the ER, and I got some medicines, but they dont seem to be helping too much. I still feel overall extremely achy and sore, not including my horrible sore throat and cough.

We got the OK from my dr to start trying for a baby, because the medicine seems just about completely out of my system, however I don't know if its such a good idea right now, because it seems im sick at least once a month.. and im really scared that with my immune system so low, somehow it could harm the baby. and that's the LAST thing I want.

Dance is going really good... only 7 weeks left! As you can tell im over the top excited. lol. This is my first recital in a really REALLY long time, and we are doing the circle of life.. and the song just has sooo much meaning for me, and it is actually a really emotional song for me and my family.. so by the end of each class im not only physically tired but emotionally exhausted as well. But because my heart is SOO into it, I know it will just be so much better at the actual recital.

Im really hoping Ashley (meuncensored) and her family can come down to see it. [:)] Plus I really want to meet her new baby! lol


The other day, I was walking home from my parents house, (its only down the street from our house) and my dads rottweiler got loose, and chased me, and I didnt know she was behind me and she jumped on me with such force that i fell in the street. [:(] Shes not a mean dog, shes just REALLY big, and weighs a whole lot more than I do, so i was really scared. A neighbor happened to hear me and ran out and grabbed her off of me, though he was trying to bite his hand.. I ran back into my parents house, and my jacket was ripped, and my arms are REALLY scratched up, but thats all the damage she did. I dont think she was trying to BITE me, but with some animals its really hard to know, and they can be dangerous. Especially since she doesnt know me really well. I was really annoyed at my dad(not my daddy..lol..i know confusing) because I told him what happened, and he ROLLED HIS EYES and said "what do you want me to do with her? kill her? its not like your going to die from a couple scratches." That just annoyed me beyond belief, because I was simply telling him because he needs to make sure her pen is LOCKED more securly, because if it would have been a kid passing by on a bike or something.. the dog could have seriously hurt him, and my dad would have had a huge lawsuit on his hands..

But I dont think my dad realizes that, he thinks it was somehow my fault because I happened to walk by. *eye roll* I tell you... sometimes he acts like hes close to me, and other times he couldnt give two shits about me.


Okay, this is long enough!

Goodnight guys!!
