Ok so Thursday afternoon I uploaded my blog entries for Friday and Saturday so they would post automativally. Mainly because my download limit would be reached by Friday morning and it would make in near impossible to upload them over the weekend. So here you were thinking of how creative I was over the weekend when I have actually been in hospital since Saturday morning! Stay tuned for the story!! LOL
It started Thursday night with a really bad earache. Fast forward to Friday morning and I was at my Dr's surgery in severe pain to then be referred to a specialist that day. He sent me home with meds and said that I would start to feel better by Saturday afternoon. Well Friday night I had a bad reaction from the meds I was taking and preceeded to be sick for nearly 12 hours straight! So Saturday morning I ended up at the ER hooked up to a drip and pumped full of meds to stop me from throwing up. By this time my ear ache had turned into a full blown infection that hurt like anything. I couldn't touch it and could not hear out of it (still cant actually!) Of course I had thrown up all the meds that I had taken over the last day and the infection took hold. So I was in for a nice little hospital visit. GRRR!!! I hate hospitals at the best of times. So I have been hooked up to an IV since Saturday afternoon making sure that I got my meds ok. So finally at around 1pm today I was released. I have to go back to the specialist later on today to have my ear looked at again. It is no longer sore but still can not hear a thing! So perhaps my little bit of Ephemera from Em's card challenge will have to be my hospital tag!!!
You POOR thing!!! Doesn't sound like you've had a good weekend at all!!
*Get Well Soon!*

Awww I feel your pain. Ear infections are so painful especially when you are vomiting. I sincerely hope you get your hearing to return. I did think you were busting out the creativity. How smart are you to get those post ready!

Hope you are feeling better Lee.
I've had my fair share of hospital visits myself the past few weeks with my Dad.
Take care.........

You poor thing Lee! Ear aches are not much fun, I went to the Eye and ear Hospital about 6 months ago, and really feel for you.
Wishing you a really speedy recovery.
