It’s an old topic, but I think it’s worth bringing it up again.

I've been to the hospital a few times. The first was when I was a baby, not even walking yet. I was there for a few months, which was the longest stay, though I don’t remember it myself. From what my parents told me, I’m not entirely sure of the reason, but it did lead to some other health issues.
Another time was for eye surgery when I was in my early teens. I stayed for about two weeks, and it was connected to some problems that came up after I was sick as a baby.
I also ended up in the hospital once after fainting right after leaving the dentist. They kept me there for two days, and no, it wasn’t because I was scared...it was actually due to something the dentist used but anyways ... can not stand dentist now.
Then there was the time I gave birth to my child and had an emergency C-section. I stayed a few days for that. After that, I had a few more stays for other issues. The last time was just before COVID, and within a few months, I had the same surgery twice.
So, yeah, quite a lot.
