| Jo Beth was getting almost used to living with her headaches. Then, her stomach started to hurt. Very quickly, the problem got worse and worse. It hurt SO much, in a band right across her diaphragm. She often had to stop what she was doing and hold herself still and tight, and breathe carefully until the pain passed. Jo Beth kept working, and kept sleeping her days away in the pool. Her head kept hurting, and her stomach kept hurting, but she didn't go to a doctor. She just wasn't the kind of person to go to a doctor for every little thing. She knew most things got better on their own. |
