True my nature and longing of experience the allergy came to a head and I was forced to go to the hospital. I woke Emma 7 am and said we better go. With out a second word she was out of bed getting dressed and at the door.
We tried to avoid this experience since we all have ideas of an Indian hospital. I can tell you they are wrong, we were both super happy to have had the experience even if for poor reasons.
When we got to the hospital the oh so fine doctor looked at Omaha (who would not stay home with Jessyca as she wanted to be with me, little love) and said, ``What has happened`` I said were are for me. He told me to go lye down and he would come, there was no wait, the place was clean. He came over I told him what it was he assessed the situation and said I am giving an injection of cortisone and an anti allergen. Great just what I get in Montreal, good news. He took Emma to the counter, the nurse came with 2 viles and a needle with a tube. I said ``òh you are taking blood`` she did not answer and I explained to Omaha it is common practice to diagnose an allergy.
The nurse did her job and told me to fold my arm to keep the cotton in. No sooner did I fold my arm and through out my entire body came a burning sensation first at my pubis, then down my legs to my toes and up my trunk around my brain. She had done and injection straight into my blood stream. I know understand heroin addiction. HOLY SHIT. Immediately the redness was gone, the swelling was down. But Omaha turned white as a sheet because when I folded my arm and began feeling the injection true fear came over me and I said ``What the fuck did you just put in me`` I really had to fight to stay conscious and this frightened her even though it was quickly abated and I was fine. The doctor gave his cel phone and told me to go home and rest, call him later to let him know how I was. The whole thing took less than an hour. Jessyca thought we got lost and came home it was so quick. God Bless India.
The girls took Omaha to their consultations with the Ayurveda doctor so that I could rest. After 5 hours the swelling increased so I called him and he sent me to his other friend who is a skin specialist telling me to call him back and let him know, and off I went.
This doctor gave me prescriptions and I came home. It was a day of huge physical discomfort but emotional release. It is funny how fate has a way of teaching us all we need and the girls were there for me and Omaha in a way I would have never asked them to be had it not been necessitated and insisted upon them. They did it with grace, they did it with honesty and good will. I could not ask for better companions here for us.
The muck is getting out early enough so we can all be a team on this trip and everyone is included and that is another blessing only this trip could provide.
