Yep. 10-year-olds should not even have "a catheter story", but there it is. Scared me straight, and I wasn't even crooked!

Zounds! Just passed three thumb sized blood clots. Now evacuating normally.

Amazing what the human body can do to hurt itself!!

Maybe that’ll mean you can go home soon.

Vinny, in general that's a hell of a story! Education has really changed a lot since the days when we were kids. A kid gets a ball to the back of the head, we automatically put them in a concussion protocol these days. I feel like any adult who works in education and inherently takes the "kids are faking/liars/can't be trusted" stance needs to change occupations yesterday. 

And to be fair it's even something I still see today, like when a kid with obvious mental illness deregulates to the point of disassociation and starts just lashing out and behaving erratically, there's always someone at work who speculates that it's "attention-seeking behaviour." Ugh.
