Remind Me To Go To The Doctor More
Wow, how many times have I woken up with a sore throat and gone to work anyway? Taylor Momsen woke up with a sore throat and almost died. She woke up one morning complaining of a sore throat like all 15 year olds do, and her mom probably thought she was just trying to ditch studying for a test. Someone told her to go the doctor before she flew from LA to New York and the doctor freaked out and put her in the hospital.
"I have been treating Miss Taylor Momsen for the last few days. She has been hospitalized for a severe, potentially life-threatening throat infection since Sunday. She has been an excellent patient, and after aggressive antibiotics and medications, she is expected to make a full recovery in the next three to five days."
Now, I am thrilled that Taylor is going to be ok, and then it got to me thinking that how many of us would not try and see a doctor on a Saturday or Sunday because we know we wouldn't get in. How many of us then would have died. These kinds of things freak me out. What kind of sore throat says I need to see a doctor right now no matter the cost? I'm guessing this was not just strep or mono. Anyone thinking staph infection? What the hell is going on at the Gossip Girl set? I know we have talked about staph infections before and I have to say they freak me out. Can you get one inside your body? I've only heard of them on your body.
Any ideas what this could be from anyone?
