[post_page_title]A lengthy stay[/post_page_title]
Because Stephanie thought that she would be in the ER for just a matter of hours, she hurried a few personal items together and a few items of clothing. She also waved goodbye to her dog and assumed that she would return to look after him that same evening. Instead, Stephanie was forced to stay in the hospital for almost a whole week, as her stumped doctors tried to make sense of what was going on in Stephanie’s body. They had never seen anything like it before, and they had no clue what she was suffering from.
