Review of 2007 Part 3

July:
I can’t go to swimming and on a travel. I felt trapped staying home due to bathroom emergencies. Those were awful. I felt so sick!
On July 10th, I heard small plane crushed into 2 Sanford homes on the breaking news. It was trying to land at an airport. 5 people were killed. One of the victims aboard the plane was identified as Dr. Bruce Kennedy, a plastic surgeon and son-in-law of Bill France Jr., the former head of NASCAR.
I got a new bed mattress on July 11th. It was set up in my bedroom by Joe and Mom on the 13th.
I heard Lady Bird Johnson is passed away at age 94 on July 11th news. Lady Bird was a widow of former U.S. President Johnson.
Got first e-mail from Todd since April 2006 on July 15th.
Children and adults flocked to buy year 7 book, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows”, seriously and excitedly on July 21st.
I finally went to see my doctor this late July. I was in a shock when I found out how much weight I have when a nurse asked me to do a scale for her in Doctor’s office. That’s why I got sick and I am doing exercises. Got new medications.

August:
Still taking medications. I got better.
Heard on the news about the bridge collapse in Minnesota on Aug 1st. I learned that bridge was about under construction due to an old one. Vehicles including a school bus were crashed everywhere. That was a big news.
I went to Barnes & Noble on Aug 11th. I had a fun there. I bought "The Complete Idiot's Guide To Shakespeare" and DVD documentary, "The Secret".
September:
Luciano Pavarotti, opera's biggest superstar of the late 20th century, died on September 6th. Personally, my father met him in New York City many years ago. I can't remember what year Dad met famous Pavarotti in a person but I guess I was a young girl at that time and didn't have a chance meeting him. Dad was very lucky meeting him in NYC for the first time. Dad has a professional photo of Pavarotti at home.
Got new Ojo phone by SNAP!VRS on the 11th.
October:
I went to ER at the hospital in late afternoon of October 7th. I can't stand being illness. I stayed there for 4 hours. A female nurse and a male doctor were nice to me. They discovered how sick I was. I had a fever little bit. What? I didn't know that. That's what the male nurse told me about 20 minutes later after I arrived at the ER with my mother. A doctor disnosed me hypokalemia, which is a condition of a low level of potassium in the blood. I vomitted once while I was in the exam room. And a stomach flu. I drank a special juice that tastes bitter. Yuck! And then the hospital discharged me from there that night.
Prevacid works. Thank God. I was about getting better.
I went to see a new, different doctor, at his office in Deland with my parents. He's a gastroenterologist on October 12th. We were discussed my belly problems. At the end of our discussion, the doctor suggests I will be sent to the hospital for a test next month, right before Thanksgiving.
I was sent to meet an ultrasound specialist and ordered to get a blood test at a hospital in my hometown by my gas doctor on October 17th.
I joined Multiply site on October 28th.
November:
I went to the hospital for a test in Deland 2 days before Thanksgiving. After surgery, I was in a shock when I just found out I have 2 polyps inside. A gas doctor took them out successfully. I can’t believe it. I didn’t know those 2 polyps were stuck inside me. I wonder how long they stay inside. I couldn't understand. How they got in there? They made me having heartburns for years.how long they stayed. Before I found out about them, I felt weird something inside me but I didn’t know what they are. I guess I felt they probably are at top of my stomach. Anyways, a week later, I found out my stomach has an infection called H.pylori. A benign. A positive. It’s very serious. I might die from this. I was told by my mom. A gas doctor took a biopsy out of my stomach for a test with his medical team. Mother thinks I may have a food poison from Wal-Mart.
Katrina, my niece, and her family flew in to visit us from Texas for Thanksgiving Dinner.
Joe stayed at my place during Thanksgiving week, for 4 days.
December:
GDBAD Christmas Party was held at Piggotte Community Center (<----click this link, please, for an info) in South Daytona Beach for a Christmas party and playing a game in Port Orange.
Took off medications on Dec 10th.
Got new walker with 3 rollers and a basket as an early Christmas present on Dec 15th. Mom had a surprise for me. It looks cool! Wow! I started walking again since I got it. Very comfortable to move around.
Benazir Bhutto, a former prime minister of Pakistan, was assassed on Dec 27th. Whoa, I can’t believe it. Without Bhutto, I believe an election will be in a big trouble and a ruin.

This is the end. Goodbye 2007.

Welcome 2008. We will find out what will happen in the new 2008 in this world.
