So last night I was enjoying dinner with my wife. We cleaned up after supper and sat down to watch the snowboarding event at the Olympics when I flet a little tickle in my head. I went upstairs to blow my nose. Went into the bathroom, grabbed a tissue and blew. Within a second I realised that I was holding a handful of blood. I pinched like you are supposed to, and it would not stop. Almost 2 hours later, I decided to go to the hospital. They pushed a 7inch balloon in my nose to stop the bleeding. I went home at 2am. It is noon now and I still have this thing in my nose. I think this is serious.
