I was feeling quite fine, talking to friends about what we were going to do the next day.... then I went to bed and the stomach pains started.
It got worse and worse as the night went on until finally at 6am, I just got out of bed and I couldn't stand up straight. I was a full on cripple.

My mom raced me off to the hospital where they took some blood and urine, came back and said "the lady we're operating on now is being taken off the table, we'll get you in right now and get back to her."

Sure enough, my appendix ruptured while on the table... flooded my system with toxins and I had to stay in the hospital for 5 days with an IV in me to flush out my system.

Had they of waited at all, I probably would have died.

Sometimes it happens just that fast.
