Personal Narrative: My Stitches In My Life

One day I was with my family at the park and I tried lifting my leg on to our car to tie my shoe and I couldn't lift my leg so I told my mom and she said “We can go to the hospital and see whats wrong because you shouldn't be having problems still.” We went to the hospital and had to wait two hours to see a doctor then eventually one came and got us. We went into a room and he asked what was wrong so I told him then he walked out of the room and came back about 5 minutes later to take me into another room to take an x-ray.I took the x-ray pictures then went back to my room and we waited for about 20 more minutes then he came back into my room again and told me that my pelvic bone was broken and that I won't be able to play football this season also i'll have have to be on crutches until it heals so about 4 months. He also said if I don't use the crutches that my bone could slip and I would need surgery or have a limp for the rest of my life. I was really shocked when he said all of this because I would have never thought it was this bad and I was also upset because I had to miss a whole season because games haven't even started

After we all had finished breakfast i got upstairs to get ready to leave for my grandparents house ”. Me and my sister were done so we had ran to the car and waited for mom and dad. Soon enough they came and we all had gotten in the car, dad was driving mom was in the front passenger side and my and jill were in the back seats.

A couple minutes later the veterinarian came out and called Hunters name. At this point Hunter was so excited to be at the vet that he started pulling Krista.

The sun was shining down on me, and I didn’t want to wear the hat my mom had brought so I left it in the car. It was dusty everywhere, and when I kicked my feet, the dust would come up like smoke all around me. My aunt Karen took us to her office. We had to wait for about 30 minutes because she was working that morning. She programs computers for the zoo.

“Mom?” I say I can hear my mom crying in the bedroom, she usually does this on a daily basis but today it is more than usual because my father died on this day. Today marks four years since his death, I still feel guilty for it. I was in the car with my dad when it occurred and I couldn 't do anything to solve it or help him but I still tell myself I could have done something. Sniffling my mother responds, “Yes Meghan?” I know when my mom is upset and she thinks she

When I got back into the room the gave me some really nice socks and then they left. People kept coming in and out until finally about 5 hours later, they gave me some pain killers that made me loopy and put the cast on. I was mad because they didn’t even give me a choice of having a waterproof cast, so I had to go the rest of summer, until I got my boot, without swimming. They had to teach me how to walk on the crutches and I was really bad at it, but now I’m really good at

The next day I’m preparing to leave for my mom to pick me up. I realized this severe pain shooting down my spine, I steadily took ibuprofen and other over the counter medicines hoping it would slowly go away over time. It didn’t seem at the time that it was something unusual or out of the ordinary. Finally, my mom picked me up we went and grabbed something to eat, then headed on our 30 minute trip home. I sat in the middle of the

The inferior lobe, lower part, of my left lung is scar tissue and I don’t get as much as oxygen as the “normal” person does. I spent a large amount of time in the hospital in an oxygen tent during the first few years of my life. The doctors put me on a transplant list, but, my mom argued with the doctors and told them that she didn’t want me to have a transplant. When I was three, I received a diagnosis of asthma. This new diagnosis led to more hospital time, more medications and more doctors informing my mom I needed a transplant, still, she resisted.

The X-rays came in and the doctor thought my knee and shin bone were broken. I am taken to get X-rays again. The final results after a few X-rays were my knee bone and shin bone were bruised. It felt like I got a million X-rays but in reality, it was more like four or five. One time I was given stickers.The next time I was given a choice between a pig stuffed animal and frog stuffed animal and I picked the pig stuffed animal.
