Link to original post: Live Liver.......Live



This is my first blog. But, unfortunately, it is a very dismal one. This is not for any kind of sympathy, or remorse, it's just my way to get this off my chest, and see it in print.

Today started out as a normal day. I walk into school, ready to tackle that Science quiz later today, proud of my math review packet I did, and memorizing that solo I have in symphonic band. Then I see my girlfriend. She's beautiful. I was about to ask her how her game went last night, as she's on the JV volleyball team. I notice she looks weak. In pain. Her arm is wrapped around her stomach. I hug her, ask her what's wrong. She's said it's no big deal, she just got him hard in the stomach at her game. I little bruise thats all. Then she smiles. That fake smile.

The rest of the day, that's all I can think about, that defeated look on her face.

I see her next in in 6th period. Every breath she takes looks painful. I walk her to the nurses office. They give her ice. And she rests. I then see her mother walk in, she tells me to leave, that she's alright, and that she will be taken to the hospital for some X-rays. I give her a hug goodbye, and resume back to my happy mode, knowing she's in fine hands.

It's now 4pm. Im brawling my friend, Roxas (SWF username is Marthshadow). Im using Sheik (later he says that my ftilts are annoying when he uses Falco xD) and then I hear the phone ring. I tell him I have to go. It's her. Here is our conversation:

Me: "Hey, are you feeling better?"
Her: *Crying*
Me: "Are you ok? Whats wrong"
Her: "Im in the Emergency Room. They took the X-Rays"
Me: "And?"
Her: "Apparently my liver- my liver is bleeding, or busted or something!"
Me: "Oh my god. Thats awful!"
Her: "I don't know what's going to happen, I don't know if I'll see you again" *Crying*

She hangs up.

At this point, Im mortified. My girlfriend, the person I care most about right now, just me she might not see me again, and hangs up. I dont know whats going on, or if Ill ever see her again. I havent heard from her since. For all of you who know my real age, you may say Im overreacting as Im reather young, but guess what. I care about her so much. So don't tell me I shouldnt be this horrified. Because I am.

I needed to say that. I needed to let this all out. This isn't the only thing in my life thats giving me this feeling, but this is the most important. I plan on showing my beautiful girlfriend this blog later, and it would be amazing if you could post something of support. Not for me. Im not the one suffering. She is. If you have read this far, Im sorry you had to sit through that story. Im done. Im going to go try to call her one last time....

Thursday October 1:

Today was an interesting day. Many emotions came over me through the course of the day.

When I walked into to school the next morning, my first thought was to go to the nurses office, fish for any information I could find. As I was passing my locker, look who I saw. That's right, her. My girlfriend. I kinda felt dazed for a second, because this was exactly the opposite of what I expected to see. Let me break it down.

After she hung up, she was prepared for a variety of tests and x-rays. Apparently it was a scary and unpleasant night. And get this. I think this is the most frusturating thing. ALL THE TESTS CAME BACK SAYING NOTHING WAS WRONG. I was, like, pissed. She was obviously too. That whole bull**** about a bleeding liver or broken ribs all just far off. Now, you might think this is a great thing, but there is a catch. She got hammered so hard in the stomach, she's black and blue all up her and around her chest. I saw it. Its like a giant, thick, black cross on her chest. Its was ugly and looked painful Im not going to lie. The poor girl couldnt breath without wincing in pain. But, she was there, safe, and I was just so happy.

Now, what she didnt tell me right away is that they totally jacked her up on morphine right before school. The problem is, that:

1) It wasnt helping her pain at all
2) It was making her so tired, sad, and moodswingy.

Its 2nd period. We have symphonic band. She is so tired and worn out, she drops her flute in midsong. Just drops it and struggles to pick it back up she's so weak. Im thinking to myself "What the hell. Why is she even here, she should be at home resting". Every time I make her laugh, try to make her happy, she is in pain because of her chest. Every conversation feels incomplete and lost. Soon, the excitement of seeing her drowns away. On top of that, Ive got my stupid friends who, every time she coughs or something, go "Go comfort her!! Give her a hug do something!" making it sound like in front of her that I dont care.

So, the day goes like this. Its actually kind of a depressing day, considering how she's just absolutely miserable the entire time.

Now, this is where things get ridiculous. Since technically she is "internal stable" and "able to run, breathe, and function normally", she is required to go to freshman volleyball practice. Idiots dont see the freaking black cross on her chest. I go with her to her practice, and Im telling you every second I wish I didnt. She's clearing dying out there, collapses on the ground from time to time. I was seriously on the verge of tears. Im not gonna talk about this part.

Anyway, bacially today's summary:

1) Finding out my girlfriend is "alright" (good thing!)
2) She will take a long time to heal, and she was collapsing from sleep in school
3) Volleyball Coaches are ****ing stupid.

Thats basically it for today. It may seem like a more depressing story, but in reality the good news is she's going to be ok! Thanks to everyone who supported her last night, now all we got to do is get through a couple weeks of bruising.

I hope she's ok, she'll be in my prayers :)
Just curious, is there anyone at your school who hates you? Because they might have found out and called you to hurt you.
Anyway, yeah what Logan said you should see if your parents would take you to the hospital.

Very sorry to hear it, and I hope they fix whatever's going on.

zeldspazz's GF, if you see this know that you're in my prayers. Anyone that means so much to a fellow SWF'er doesn't deserve this.

dont apologise to us for reading this man

all you can really do is hope for the best, as logan suggested, you should probably go to the hospital and sit with her, comfort her, just be really suppportive.

i've never been in this situation, but i do hope that she gets better, for both her and yourself. good luck bro

No, it was her, Im aboslutely positive. I have no people who would go out of their way to do something like that.

And thank you, every prayer counts.

Edit: Thanks SOLID and Techno, I have no way to get to the hospital, and I dont even know what one she's at. Its all very murky atm.

Anyway, don't stress about it, most likely she'll be fine after surgery ect.
Try writing a "Get well soon" card, that might help.

yeah i'm really sorry to hear about this, how recent was this and do you have any more information? Do you plan on going to the hospital because moral support and caring people around you makes everyone feel better.
I had only heard about this at about 4 this afternoon, and then I had basketball practice until 8:30. I dont have anymore information than what I wrote in the blog :( If I get a chance to go to the hospital, you can bet your *** I will go.

I wouldn't worry too much. I'm no expert, but injuries to the liver like that aren't usually serious, unless there's excessive bleeding. But they usually do emergency surgery in a serious case like that, and you'd probably know if that happened.

Still, I'm sorry to hear that.

Do you have her cell phone number? What about History and call her back? Or was it the Hospital phone?

Yeah, Im trying to think positive, one of the reasons for writing this blog was to kinda see the whole story in front of me, and realize how it will probably work out. However, there always that fear factor of "what if". Thanks though, she'll be very happy to read this when she recovers from whatever is going to happen :)

@HOLO: She did use her cellphone from the emergency room, but it has been off, and it's getting late, so I figured if she is fit to talk to anybody, she would have it on.

Try phoning her family or something. Or ask the school if they've got any information... Just try to dig something out of it.

Hope things turn out for the best, man... :/

OMG this.
Try to get in touch with the school.

And yeah don't think about it... That's the worst thing to do.
Try doing something fun, be it a videogame or reading w/e.
Reading these comments just basically reminds you of it, but if that helps thats ok.
I know my mom was going to the doctor to talk about surgery and I played something I liked and I forgot all about it.

I doubt the school is open at 9:10 at night.

But thanks you guys, and you are right, I may just ask for a brawl from somebody in a little bit.

Find out what hospital she's at. It may not be easy, but if you care about her, get on your bike or something (assuming you're not old enough to drive because you mentioned a young age several times already) and search through each hospital until you find her.

EDIT: Also, if you need to talk, just IM me :)

I don't mean to do it live. What I mean is, tomorrow, when you get to school, ask about it...

All I can do is which you the best, I guess. Sorry for not being able to do anything else.

^ This. I'd rip off my heart if my girlfriend was in such situation. (That's if I still had a girlfriend >_>.)
Anyways, IM me anytime if you need to talk. I've been sick lately, so I've got free time and am home.

Im ver far from the hospitals, it's dark, and my parents would never let me. I would absolutely love to do that though. And thank you far the IM offer :)

Good idea, I will ask the school tomorrow. And nobody should feel sorry about not being "helpful". Just by posting here you will make her feel much better after she is out of the hospital. Right now its more of a factor I dont know what the hell is going on, more than a scared feeling.

Thanks for the IM offer as well :) I think Im going to go brawl.

Have you told your parents?
They might be able to drive you/tell you what hospital you're in.

And even if not that, they could probobly comfort you until you're ok.

Awful.

Hospitals these days are very trustworthy, you should at least be thankful for that. She doesn't seem to be in as much of a life-threatening situation as some people I've known; a bleeding liver is bad, but has a low very low chance of becoming life threatening, especially in the hands of doctors.
If it was caused by playing sports, it's usually not anything severe. Yes, tomorrow you should ask around school, and at least you'll get some sympathy from others.

Besides, if she's got an Indian doctor, then she is in very good hands. ;)

Nobody has said something as true as that.
Wow.

But I personally think that you put too much faith into hospitals.
Disregard that last line, I'm a very pessimistic person.

I didn't think much of the OP until I read the phone conversation.

That's when I said, "This is NOT pretty chill."

Hope everything turns out well for her.
And getting worried with something like this is completely natural in a relationship, no matter what the age.

I'm hoping things will turn out alright, man.

Well, at least she's not going to die.
Seriously, I think you should tell her parents she's in that much pain. Those coaches are idiots.

What kind of idiot makes a recovering person play bloody volleyball? Tch.

On a more positive note:
How lovely, she'll be alright.
Things like this mostly always turn out to be good endings.

^This.
Personally, I'd try snapping some sense into her.
Why does she even agree on practicing volleyball? She might like it... But d*mnn.

Still, I'm glad she's fine. ;)

Ah today was wonderful. The morphine had no more affect and she was feeling emotionally better despite the pain :)
