Diary of An Auto-Immune Survivalist - The Hemorrhage
Blood poured from my vaginal canal and into the toilet. Clots of blood slipped out of me like a chain of fat beads that plopped into the water below. Reaching my hand beneath my seated tush, I caught one of the warm bloody clumps and brought it into view. It looked like a thick slice of beef liver, larger than the palm of my hand. The frail red mass separated into pieces as it dropped back into the toilet’s bowl. Hurriedly, I pulled a hand towel from its hook and put it up, in-between my legs. Shoving the towel into my vaginal opening, I applied as much pressure as I could as a desperate measure to slow the blood flow. My panic grew. I squeezed my thighs together to hold the towel in place.

Staring at the Midmark Ritter 204, the examination bed called to me. I craved its soft comfort and embrace. That pristine, crisp paper sheet of protective hygienic covering was what prevented me from making myself comfortable. I yearned to lie my body upon that tan leather table and relax my muscles and close my eyes, if only for a moment. The bed may as well have been encased in glass. The white parchment crumpled at the slightest touch, and lying upon it would crush and tear it to pieces. Disturbing it would be the evidence of the attention-seeking behavior that I was often accused of when seeing a new specialist. That paper stood between me and a few moments of desired rest.
