Ouch! (AHW)





As I ran through the hallway my hair blew behind me like a cape. When I got to the BCS office I saw my Mom standing there waiting for me,she was wearing a black North Face parka, jeans and her hair was pulled back by her upright sunglasses. "Hi Honey" she said "whats up with your ear?" "I don't know" I replied as I got into the car "it just hurts really hurts!" The whole drive after that was silent until we pulled into the urgent care parking lot she said" Does it feel clogged?" she asked as we walked into the building "yes, a lot" I whined. On the door there was a sign that caught my eye it said: If you have come in contact with anyone that has/had or could have had Ebola get a test immediately. It kind of scared me to think that people who could have Ebola have been there but I forgot about it as soon as I walked n the door. The person at the front desk said "have you ever been here before?" "yes" said my Mom "Last name Deighan First Name Ellie or Elizabeth" "okay" she said "follow me", she led us into a bright room and told us that the doctor would be there soon.First the Nurse came in and he took my temperature, found out my blood pressure and all of that stuff. Finally the Doctor came in and she asked a ton of questions like "when did it start hurting" and "which ear is it" finally she looked in, " I can not see anything, there is too much wax. We will have to do a cleaning process and it make take a while. Do you have time?" she said "um, I think so" my Mom said. she put these ear drops in my ear and I waited about 10 minuets until the nurse came in and started putting water in my ear with a syringe "ouch!" I screamed. He did this several times and then drained  the water and about a tablespoon of wax into a white bowl and then poured it down the sink. When the Doctor Looked into my ear she said I had an inner ear infection or a sensitivity to the cleaning and the wax was what was making it hurt. "come back in a few days if it still hurts" she said. But the best part was that I got two lollipops!
