Ivor,

It's Wednesday evening. Are you still suffering?

I agree with Danielle, Jeff, Annie, Gary et al. If you want to hit the ER at Lakewood, I'll come and get you and sit with you.

Don't let this go.

I am surprised the schools do not have an inhouse doctor.


they have one.

and two? nurses.


Just to clarify, lest anyone think the schools are rolling in money, there is no inhouse doctor, and we have one nurse for 2200 students and 175+ staff. The nurse has a helper to answer phones and assist with triage.

Hope you're feeling better, Ivor. As Suzanne said, don't let this go!!!

Ivor Update
Just got off the phone with the lad, doctor's appointment tomorrow.

Not pain but discomfort.

Annie

We are adding a health and wellness section on the board, with many people wanting to join in besides Lakewood Hospital. I would hope you can join that discussion as well as the great work you are doing with the LEAF Community.

Also working on the Holistic side, that will be announced in the next edition of the paper.

thanks for all your worries.

I'm not feeling any pain I just feel like my stomach has pressure in it. It's not like gas because I don't have any, and I'm not having any nausea or diarreah.

I'll go to the doctor tomorrow. I didn't want to miss my second day of school when I know I can attend.

Thanks for checking up, but no worries here. I'll go to my physician..and I'll probably end up at lakewood hospital for MRI's or something. I'd rather go to my physician first in case it is gas or something that's not so serious.

It's ironic, I just saw my good friend who in middle school had her appendix burst. I joked around with her and said I thought of her when I figured out it might be a hernia or appendicitis...and then I come home and read that it really might be!

once again, thanks for the concern but don't lose any sleep over me! after my last root canal where I had to wait weeks before I got it fixed, I think I can survive anything!

and thanks for the health and wellness section. A lot of people can benefit from it!
