Have you ever been hospitalized or had surgery? What for?

Yes. When around 8 years old. I was bleeding when i urinated. I went to the hospital in Roosevelt for 1 week and the went home for one night and out to ST Mark's hospital the next day. Dad and mom took me in our car. 


I learned that I hated Pepsi just before I left the hospital in Roosevelt. Actually mom had taught us never to drink it and so I had asked for 7 Up every time they brought a drink to me that week. Finally the last nurse felt that I had been having enough 7 Up and brought me some Pepsi. I got sick and threw up all night and have never had it since except when given it to me wrong but I only take one taste and recognize the mistake and can't finish it.  


I remember counting over a hundred and fifty cars coming out of Salt Lake city headed for the deer hunt. It was the friday before the deer hunt.  I was then put in a room with three other empty beds. By the evening of the next day I had three roommates that were all hurt during the deer hunt. I went into exploratory surgery the following monday.  They came in and gave me something to put me out. I remember the room spinning around pretty fast before I finally went under. I woke up and was watching Zorro.  I also remember my confusion at wondering why a show I always saw in the afternoon showing at 7:30 in the morning in Salt Lake City. Well it wasn't and I had been out the entire day. It also really hurt to urinate but they still never found any problem. I have never had a problem since then.
