Home from the Hospital but in Isolation (Out one Prison into Another :-) )

Hey everyone, I came home from the hospital on Friday and I was so happy to get out of there to come home but there was a price to pay. The price was still not being able to see my boys for ANOTHER 3 days because they were not allowed to be in the same house with me because of the radiation. They came with my mom to pick me up but my cousins were there waiting to pick them up. I only got a glance at them while we were at the stop light. We waved and waved as if we were not going to see each other again. I wanted to cry but knew they were in good hands and they were going to the country and they love being down there because they are free to get out and play. Well on my way home I realized I was HUNGRY because as I mentioned before I only had FRUIT to eat. Anyway I was told previously my tastebuds may fail on me for a while, and I did not pay any attention to it until I asked mom to stop and get me a burger. I could not taste the burger at all. But since I was hungry I ate it to fill my stomach. So when we arrived at Camp Lejeune I also remember the docs telling me that I could set off the base alarm. I thought that was real cool, that is until it actually happened. When we drove across the bridge to get to the sentry we heard the alarm go off and the MPs starting talking on their radios and stopping traffic, so we slowly creeped up to the sentry and I put my "GET OUT OF JAIL FREE" card out the window to inform the guys that I may have set off the alarm because I was just released from the hospital. He looked at the card and radio in to the others and told them what he had discovered and we were on our merry way. Mom was very nervous and I thought it was funny but looking on the bright side of things it lets us know that we are prepared for a nuclear attack. Anyway we arrived home and I slowly walked to my room knowing that I would be isolated in there for the next 72 hours. I must say it was a little stressful but relaxing because I had time to make sure I could heal and get better before my guys came home to me.
