On Saturday, the 19th of November, my family rushed my baby sister to the hospital. We packed two bags as fast as we could before my dad came home to drive us to the hospital. The bag that my mum asked me to pack my baby sister's bag. I packed some clothes in case she vomited again. Meanwhile, my sister prepared our bags for us. She packed some clothes for my mum in case my baby sister vomited on her and some food.
When we arrived, we went to the information person to ask where we could take my baby sister. He said that we have to take her to the children's emergencies. When we got to the parking lot, we tried to find a parking spot, but we couldn't find one. There were only some empty spaces in the adult emergencies department, so my dad dropped us in front of the entrance of the children's emergencies and went off to look for a parking. When we went in, I could already hear some crying. A toddler was crying and I assumed that she was hurt in some way. My mum told my sister and I to sit down while she talked to the receptionist. I asked my sister where my phone was and she pointed to her Nike bag. I took it out and started playing my 3D ninja game.
After a while, my sister heard my mum's phone ringing so she took it out and It was my dad. She brought it to mum so she could answer it. Before she answered it, my dad walked into the hospital. Then my sister said to put my phone away because we were going, so I did.
We followed a nurse who led us to where we stayed. She told us that we were going to stay in cubicle B. When my mum put my baby sister down on the little bed, she started crying. My sister and I panicked and looked around for something for her to play with. After looking around quickly, we found some books on a shelf so we took one. It was about a police dog. She started flipping the pages but she still wasn't happy. My sister went outside, but I didn't know why, but soon she came back came back with a car that my baby sister could fit in. My mum put her in and my sister and I started pushing her around in the corridor. Soon my baby sister was happy and steering the wheel.
Afterwards, we went back to the cubicle and my mum took my baby sister out of the car and put her on the bed. My sister and I went out to put the car away and we saw a little girl colouring a picture of dinosaurs with felt pens. We went back and asked our mum if we could go to the children's colouring room, and of course she said yes.
When we arrived in the colouring room, we ended up colouring for a little girl because she was struggling to colour in a picture of dinosaurs. While she was colouring, I was reading a story that was written on the wall. It was about a happy couple sailing through the sea. There were toys, obviously. There was also a pretend pirate ship with an actual pirate ship steering wheel. After that, I went to my sister and ruined her picture, because I put some dots around the dinosaurs and she ended up making boomerang clips .
Before long, we went back because we heard our baby sister crying. We opened the curtains and saw mum carrying her and she was able to fall asleep. My sister sat on the chair, so I didn't have a chair to sit on, so I told my sister to move over so I can sit next to her. I took my phone and started playing games again. After I played three stages, a nurse went in to check on my baby sister and She was already asleep, so the nurse talked to my mum quietly. She said that we could go home after she wakes up. All of a sudden, my baby sister woke up and our work begun. We packed our bags and was ready to go home.
My favourite part of the day was when my baby sister woke up because we were able to go back home, because I was getting a little bit annoyed of the babies and the toddlers crying so I was very relieved that we could go home!
