I walked into the surgery room, in the center of room. Monitors were to the right of the table and a man was standing next to them. A nurse confronted me and asked me to lay down on the table. After I got settled the man next to the monitors placed a mask over my nose and mouth with tubes coming out the end. A gassy substance started to flow from the tubes and I stated to get sleepy. After about two minutes my vision became blurred and I couldn’t feel a bone in my body. The doctor put the iv in to my hand and hooked up the anastesa. After about another three minutes I became really sleepy. After about a minute every thing I saw went black.
It was Tuesday night at about nine o’clock, my mom pulled into the garage and turned the car off. I pulled the handle on the doorknob and got out of the car. As I opened the car to my house I had a small headache but just ignored and went up to my room. I brushed my teeth, took out my contacts and climbed into bed. After five minutes of laying there in bed, I rolled over on my side and tried to go to bed. After an hour of rolling back and forth with my headache I decided to get and go down stairs and sit on the couch and watch tv next to my mom. After an hour of sitting there watching the news I decided to give going to sleep another shot. Once again I climbed into bed and after a couple minutes I feel asleep.
I rolled out of bed the next morning with the same headache! I dressed for school and ate a bowl of cereal. My parents met me down stairs and started to make my lunch for school. I told them about the headache I still had and they decided after a little while that we should go down to Primary Children’s Hospital to get a C.A.T. scan. After the scan was over we were led into a room and were told to wait for a doctor. After about half in hour a doctor came in and told my family and I that I would have to go to surgery.

The next memoir will be my prediction and fear for my future.
