A lot of people who are admitted to the hospital have injuries related to attacks. Whether it be from an allergic bee sting or a bear that attacked you. I know a bee sting might be pushing it a little bit, but some people really can't bear the pain. Other people will not go to the hospital, but soon find that their medicine cabinet is bare. If you're actually attacked by a bear though, you HAVE to go to the hospital. If you don't, then your family members might be losing you. Nobody would want that to happen.

The two most dangerous illnesses are heart disease and strokes. They are WAY too deadly. I know I wouldn't want to get those illnesses. Let's say that your cousin got admitted to the hospital from a neighborhood dog attack. Maybe you wanted to go make sure she was okay, so you stay at an American-Inn and go check him/her out. You CAN go in the room where she is being kept with the parent's permission, of course! The reason is that the patient isn't sick but just hurt. You can't catch a cut from somebody.
