what a birthday

i wake up. no happy birthday. no cake. my mom is too tired to give me a ride to school and she lent my truck to her friend. i get to class, first period im fine. second period, its like 50 degrees in the room and im sweating. i go to the nurse and find out i have a 100.4 fever. i go home. my mom now swears that i have pneumonia. she says that in an hour or so, shes taking me to the emergency room and she says they will admit me and stick IVs in me. on top of that, if i get admitted in to the hospital, this means i must cancel my non-refundable trip to hawaii. i payed for it so im out 500 bucks. a card? no. a happy birthday without me saying anything? no. now i just sit and wait. you'd think if you payed $125 for a doctor visit that they would give you medicine that would get you well. ive been on those antibiotics for three days now, and my mom says they arent helping, even though i feel so much better. she says she can "hear" the congestion in my chest. she says cough it out, but i have been coughing till my throat is raw and nothing comes out. i swear the medicine is working, but what do i know, its only my body.
