my poor friend

Just been speaking to my poor friend. She is in hospital. She is very early pregnant and is being sick all the time, but she has also had what she thought was IBS and a bad bug, but it turns out that it is inflamed ulcerative colitis and she is going to be in hospital for about 7 days. At least they know what it is and can treat it. It also shouldn't come back, which is better than if it was IBS as she would have just had to learn to live with that. She was so ill and in so much pain. Her stomach had swollen so she looked 7 months pregnant. ... its her birthday today too!
