Katie's mom drove her to school with a doctor's note. She walked to the gymnasium, her first class after lunchtime was Gym. She couldn't participate, but she sat on the bench and watched her classmates, dressed in their gym clothes, warm up with some jumping jacks.
Katie pulled some books out of her backpack and looked over the notes from the classes she missed that morning so she had something to do while the tiny camera ventured through her gut. She giggled a bit as her stomach gurgled a bit with some air she must have swallowed earlier while drinking the water to take the capsule. She wasn't allowed to eat or drink anything for another few hours so the camera has a clear view inside of her.
Both Katie and her mother thought it was just a regular pill camera procedure, but it was actually more of a sight-seeing tour for a 12-year-old who, at that time, was supposed to be in school across town.
She did wonder, honestly, if the little camera would help them find out what's wrong with her intestines; they could cramp up really bad and cause bleeding, but no amount of endoscopy or colonoscopy could figure out what was causing it. Katie crossed her finger and traced a little line across her belly while she imagined where the capsule was before she snapped back to reality, looked around, and continued her studying.
