Because she's Layla and she can.......

So, since I'm not going in chronological order I'll start with the events of today first. Layla's been admitted to the hospital again. She had a fever of 104.3 (yikes!) this morning. So we took her in (luckily before all of the hypochondriacs got there). I had to first encounter a pissy (sorry, but I could use other expletives here but I'm trying to work on that) admitting dude. He got all bent out of shape because I hadn't finished filling out the forms yet. Gee, I'm so sorry that I can't write faster but I like to actually put down the right answers to the questions. Call me anal. When I finally finished, I handed him the paperwork and quickly told him to hold on, that I had something to go with it. My OCD self, which in essence is lazy, has a completed medical history for Layla with prescriptions, hospitalizations, diagnosis, etc. on it. Saves me a TON of time when filling all of that paperwork out. I needed him to attach it to his stupid form because on the "previous surgeries" and "medications" sections, I had written SEE ATTACHED MEDICAL HISTORY. When I told him I needed to get her medical history he said, ''No, you don't". I told him, "Yes, I do". He said, "No, you don't". Again, I said, "Yes, I do!" WTF dude?! I then told him that I needed to put her medical history with that form. He looked at me and said "Well, if you have it, why didn't you write it on here?". Are you kidding me?!?!?! I looked at him, wanting to punch him in the nose, and said, "Because I can't fit all of her information on that tiny (f*****g!) form". Ok, I left off the expletive. Like I said, I'm working on that. But I wanted to say it and tell him where he could shove it too. But I didn't. Because I'm nice like that. Anyway, the nurses were very impressed with my medical history sheet (suck it, admissions dude!). Layla does not have swine flu but she does have pneumonia in her left lung. I guess it's good it's not both lungs, or a shunt malfunction (which would require surgery asap in Birmingham), or kidney issues. She's been admitted to the hospital where I assume she'll be for several days. Poor baby. It's very lonely without her here. John and Sean are staying with her tonight. I'll stay tomorrow night and we'll go from there. Layla was in the hospital from 28 Aug-1 Sep for vomiting and chest gunkiness, for lack of a better term. I had really hoped we'd go another 14 months without seeing a hospital again. Guess it wasn't meant to be.
