This 8 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 1: was the hospital where you landed and they had you 9 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,400 Speaker 1: there for two weeks. Yep, and you said that they 10 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,040 Speaker 1: were nothing but amazing. 11 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:31,560 Speaker 2: Amazing doesn't even begin to cover it. With them. I 12 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:33,560 Speaker 2: couldn't say thank you enough for everything that they did 13 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 2: for me, and how wonderful and attentive their entire staff was. 14 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,519 Speaker 2: I mean Kim specifically, I love you, thank you for everything. 15 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,200 Speaker 2: I was actually at a different place and I moved 16 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,839 Speaker 2: because it was not suiting me at all. And Hackensack 17 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 2: it was like night and day. It changed everything. I 18 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 2: felt like they actually cared about what was going on. 19 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 2: There were so many specialists in and out. They never 20 00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 2: made me feel like a burden. They didn't make me 21 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 2: feel like I was going to be agnor or forgotten about. 22 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 2: It was just such wonderful treatment and I can't say 23 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:07,199 Speaker 2: it enough. Thank you guys so much. 24 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:08,400 Speaker 1: I really really appreciate it. 25 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 2: I don't know what I would have done. 26 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 1: So in telling the story about exactly what it was 27 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 1: that happened to you and maybe still happening, where do 28 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 1: you start because we all want to hear the story. 29 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 2: Well, I would love to give everyone an exact answer 30 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 2: about what happened, but we don't know that. Doctors don't 31 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,479 Speaker 2: even totally know. What we do know is I had 32 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 2: a crazy kidney infection. I had to be surgically drained 33 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 2: my kidney twice. I have a stint in there. I 34 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 2: still also have a massive kidney stone. I got pneumonia, 35 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 2: I had a little thing going on with my appendix I, 36 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 2: I was severely dehydrated, and then something weird started to 37 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 2: happen with my heart. So all of those things kind 38 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 2: of compounded at one time, and nobody knows what kicked 39 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 2: it off, what started it. It is so much better now. 40 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 2: I feel amazing now. Been on a lot of antibiotics 41 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 2: and fluids and pipes, and I have all kinds of 42 00:01:57,840 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 2: things going on. There's a little pipe sticking out of 43 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 2: me right now, a little tube in my arm. But 44 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 2: we're getting better. And then I got a call from 45 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 2: the Jersey City Health Department telling me I had a 46 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 2: parasite too. 47 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, a parasite. 48 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 2: A parasite, I'm a host. 49 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 1: Does this come from kissing elephants in Thailand? 50 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 2: It very well could have, because I didn't do anything 51 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 2: that all of us didn't do when we were there. 52 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 2: We all ate the same food, we drank the same stuff, 53 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 2: we played in the same water. You know, we did 54 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,360 Speaker 2: everything the same. The only thing I can honestly think 55 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 2: of is I kissed those elephants a ton and nobody else. 56 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: Dah, you were tongue kissing elephants. So what's it like 57 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: waking up in your hospital bed and you open your 58 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: eyes and you're surrounded by doctors. 59 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 2: I thought I was abducted the first time because there 60 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 2: were so many. There was a whole team. They were 61 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 2: from all different departments, because you know, everybody was coming 62 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 2: together in aphrology, the blood people, cardiology, urology, radiology. Every 63 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 2: single specialist was there saying, hey, we're trying to get 64 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 2: on the same page and figure out what's going on. 65 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,040 Speaker 2: But I was, you know, in and out of it, 66 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,679 Speaker 2: and then on pain meds, and I just opened my 67 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 2: eyes and I saw all of these doctors and I thought. 68 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: Someone took me. This is crazy, But they were great. 69 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 2: They were all so nice, and they really they seem 70 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 2: like they're so interested to find out what is going 71 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 2: on and actually see what happened here. 72 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,959 Speaker 1: So how scary is it to have people who are 73 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: well full of degrees and experience tell you, hey, to 74 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,519 Speaker 1: be totally honest with you, we don't know. Very scary, 75 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: I bet. 76 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 2: I was really hoping that it was just gonna be 77 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 2: something like, oh, you got this bug, and we're gonna 78 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 2: give you some medicine and you're gonna get out of here. 79 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 2: But once it started to stump everybody and they were like, yeah, 80 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 2: we can't really tell you why this is happening. We 81 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 2: can't tell you why your heart's starting to beat strangely, 82 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 2: we don't know why your white blood cell count is 83 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 2: so high, but we're trying to fix this and we're 84 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 2: trying to get on top of it. It is really scary. 85 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: Now you're out, How are you feeling. 86 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 2: I feel really good good, I feel really really really good, 87 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 2: and I'm so happy to see you guys, and I'm 88 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 2: happy to be back
