3 am wake up call...

Around 3 in the morning I got woken up by a spun out David. He was feeling dizzy and was needing to throw up. For the next day we stayed in bed. Sleeping on and off. David couldn't turn his head without wanting to throw up. He had cold sweats and was pretty miserable most of the time. I just held him and took care of him best as I could. But when it came to the day after I was pretty much set that he needed to go to the doctor.

We went to the emergency room and they admitted him. Evidently he was anemic and when they did some tests there was some internal bleeding so they had to do more tests.

Poor David, they took so much blood from him. Every couple of hours pretty much.
They had him all hooked up to drips and things, but once he was on the iv's his dizziness went away. I slept with him in his bed at the hospital. Just giving him love and trying not to stress out too much....but when the man you love is sick...stress happens...what can I say?

We were in the hospital for about 3 days. After all was said and done, they thought he was going to need a blood transfusion because he had lost so much blood, but after about a day his blood counts were fine. I was doing a lot of energy work on him. Keeping him safe in a bubble of energy, wrapping my wings around him. Anything I could do. Also so many of our friends were praying for him and sending him energy and love. Miracles were bound to happen!

After the hospital we went back to Adam's house for one more night. We had dinner with Adam, Julia and Owen, which was fun and we also got to hang out with one of Adam's house mates who shared some travel tips with us. We got all packed up the next morning and headed out again...
