I've been at camp for a week now and I still have a week of awesomeness left.
Hopefully I'm doing better than this dude!
Memory #124
To continue my web of illness and emergency room visits I would definitely need to include my string of hoax sickness that may or may not have happened in second grade...during a specific class. I attended Naumann elementary when I was in second grade and it was also the third school I had been to thus far. I was once again the new kid, which wasn't a big deal because I was kind of use to it at that point. Anyways within a month of me getting acclimated to the new school and whatnot my mom started receiving phone calls from the school's nurse saying that I didn't feel good and that I was requesting to go home. At first my mom was sympathetic and accepted my requests. Until they kept happening more and more frequently. She also started noticing the time of every phone call. My mom slowly pieced together the situation that was going down. She noticed that after she did pick me up I suddenly became better and that the nurse called the same time every day.
My mom foiled my plans, she realized quickly that I was trying to get out of math class by faking ailment. It got to the point that whenever the nurse called my mom would just ask, "Is she in math class?" and if the nurse said yes my mom would tell the nurse to let me go back to class. Man she was a smart lady. The nurse visits didn't stop though, my mom was starting to get concerned. One day after school my mom picked me up and took me to get a frosty from wendy's, which is my favorite in case you were wondering, and asked me why I was trying to skip math all of the time. When I wouldn't immediately answer she asked me if I wanted to get a tutor. I wasn't exactly sure but my mom went out the next day to find me a tutor so that I could feel more confident in math class and I eventually did, thanks to my mom.
Love always,
Erin
