The Hole In My Stomach and Perhaps More

I've always been known as a worrier. My mother, my whole life, has been telling me that I worry too much. But finally its catching up with me. I'm eighteen and I have an ulcer...apparently this is something that may have happened before and I had never noticed. You see I had food poisoning last week and my stomach became very sensitive, especially since I wasn't eating much, so now this ulcer is super noticeable. I was doubled over in pain for most of the past few days, and had to suffer through my classes. The only good thing that has come out of this entire ordeal is that I've lost a few pounds. Ray has been fantastic, making sure I get good sleep, and anything else I need. Weekday mornings we normally wake up kind of early to get Anthony ready for school, but when the alarm went off on Wednesday Ray told me to stay in bed and try to get some more sleep. He did everything that morning. As far as today goes its much better. Funny though, everyone keeps asking what I'm stressed about and yet the only person that knows besides my mom is my ex-boyfriend.
Truth be told I'm too worried to tell Ray, perhaps making this hole even bigger.
