False Appendicitis

Once when I was seven, I had to go to the hospital because I was so sick. They put an IV in me and everything. I barely remember anything from that day. I just remember that they almost gave me a surgery because they thought I had appendicitis. I doubt it would have affected anything because you don't really need your appendix, but I've always wondered how much the way that I tell that story would be different if they hadn't realized that I didn't need surgery...
