Yesterday , one of my friends from high school got married . The wedding is the first of many to come , we 're all still 21 . It was slightly weird because this was the girl who took me to my first real party when we were 15 . Who would sneak out and go to clubs .

Today is my 24th birthday , and it is also my first birthday without my father . I did n't really want to celebrate it at all , but my sisters and my mother convinced me that I should . It is also my brother in laws birthday as well .

I close my eyes and my mind takes me away , like a wave pulling stones into the under toe . As I strain my ears and eyes for any possible sign of life , other than that of the giant redwoods that surround me .

Self - resolving anaphylaxis is unstable because it can kick in again at any time , so she was taken to hospital with adrenaline on stand - by . If you thought Ipods were only for the young , you are sadly mistaken . I ' ve got one for a start ... but my 77 year - old cricket - expert patient with lung cancer and acute DIB also owned one . The lovely man looked sad as he was taken away from his home , where he lives alone among his almanacs and whisky . His classical and jazz favourites are stored on a couple of Gigs of hard drive and he made sure it came with him .

Why my 77 years old patient is in a hospital ?
