And at some point, she actually pushed pretty hard on whatever this was inside of her nasal cavity.

And when she did that, it sent this blinding wave of pain over her,

And then simultaneously, blood began pouring out of her nose, and she couldn't get it to stop.

It was like this flood of just constant bleeding, and it terrified Angela.

I mean, she'd had these terrible nosebleeds, but this was the worst one, and it was clearly connected to something inside of her nose.

And so she's starting to panic, blood's getting everywhere, and she's thinking, this has gotta be connected to that moped accident.

Maybe I have some horrible brain injury.

And so in a panic, she jumps out of the shower, towels off, gets dressed and rushes to the nearest hospital.

When Angela got to the emergency room, a nurse quickly brought her into an exam room and had her sit down and tilt her head back so the nurse could look into her nostrils to see what was going on.

And so Angela, she's got all this gauze to kind of trap the blood and she's got her head way back and she's letting the nurse do this exam.

And after a while, Angela starts to realize that this exam is taking a really long time.

The nurse is just kind of standing there, clearly looking at her nostrils, but not saying anything.

And, you know, from Angela's perspective, she can't really see the nurse.

Her head is tilted too far back.

But the silence that's grown in the room is so loud at this point that Angela finally just kind of sits up and looks at the nurse to see what's going on here.

And she sees the nurse is kind of frozen, like she's looking at Angela's nostrils like she can't believe what she's seen.

And then the nurse kind of snaps out of it and looks at Angela and says, stay calm, I'm gonna get the doctor.

And Angela's like, I am calm, what's going on here?

But then the nurse just turns around and speedwalks out of the room.
