Passing Out

Has anyone ever passed out? Have you had the feeling of lightheaded and can't see? The next thing you know your on the floor and someone is asking you if you are alright. Well I have and I'm going to tell you what happened.

I was job shadowing at the hospital. I had been up early in the morning and I didn't get the chance to eat breakfast because I was running late. For lunch I only had a sub sandwich and some root beer. I forgot to drink water that day so when I went to the hospital I was already feeling weird. For the job shadow we had to dress up nice so I have in a nice sweater that was getting kind of toasty. Some reason they have to have the hospital at a steaming one hundred degrees. I walked into a patients room and I started getting dizzy. I grabbed onto the wall and all of a sudden I woke up on the floor apologizing.

Passing out is something that is not fun. Since then, I have remembered to drink water in the morning so it doesn't happen again.
