I guess you can say I have been quite lucky now and even growing up that I never really got sick very often . However , the earliest memory of being sick is when I was about 11 , I would get sore throats . A few months went by and I developed these lumps that would protrude from the side of my neck when I bent my head over . This now leads me to my first memory of receiving medical care , which my mother took me into the doctor for us to find out that I had tonsillitis . I had to have my tonsils removed shortly after . From what I remember , I had a pretty good experience . The nurses and doctor were very kind and made sure I was well taken care of . I did find out that day I was getting an allergic reaction from latex tape that was holding my IV in place . The staff made sure to quickly change it and was very nice in making sure I was okay . I would definitely say my care was good and adequate for sure , as I no longer had sore throats and it relieved the swollen glands in my neck . Overall , my experience went smoothly and I would say I was quite blessed to have such great nurses and doctors to resolve this issue .
