She was in the hospital for a month. She went in weighing 115 pounds, and came out weighing 96 pounds. She almost died twice. Her big concern? If I've been eating good....
I. Am. A. Lucky. Lucky. Man.

Take care of her. It takes time to recover.
And take care of you, too.

This is crazy...
This morning about 7am my mother called and in a weak voice said.."Will you come take me to the emergency room?"
I jumped straight up, pulled on some clothes and ran out the door. Picked her up, and off we went to the ER. When I'd ask her what was wrong, she'd say "it's just a problem, ok?" On the way there she decides she doesn't want to go to the ER, she wants to "see if Dr. Post can work me in."... so I rush to the correct entrance for seeing her Dr and let her out. I mentioned that she had fallen a week or so ago. So I'm sitting out in the parking lot wondering if whatever it was that was wrong today was connected to her falling last week. Whatever it was I thought to myself, it must be serious to cause today's issue to be so urgent. Shortly a nurse called to tell me Dr Post wasn't in so they were taking her to the ER. Oh wow, I thought to myself... this must be bad! I sat out in the parking lot (this hospital isn't letting anyone in unless you're a patient) from about 8am to 4pm, scared half to death, thinking about Sarah bein alone, etc..
Here's the deal, all boiled down: 3 weeks ago I had taken her to a Dr appointment at which time her Dr told her that her sodium level was too high. He prescribed fluid pills. She hates salt anyway, so for 2 or 3 weeks she had been avoiding salt and taking fluid pills. Today, after ct scans of her brain, her lungs, who knows what else.. blood tests, urine tests, you name it they did it... the ER team determined that her sodium level was too low, to wait for her Dr to arrive in the hospital and let him decide what to do... her Dr finally calls the ER and tells them to have my mother to stop taking the fluid pills, and how her low sodium level might be why she passed out and fell....
- I'm pissed at her regular Dr for putting her on the fluid pills in the first place. I'm pissed at her regular Dr for taking 8 freaking hours to call the ER back just to say in essence "stop taking the fluid pills and eat some potato chips..." But what I'm most concerned about is why my mother made it seem like it was an emergency, scared me half to death, when there was absolutely nothing new wrong with her that couldnt have waited until her scheduled dr appointment next week... im wondering if she did this to compete with Sarah for attention...
Geez......
