This was not the plan

Apr 22, 2012 13:00

I had bought a plane ticket to see my mom this weekend for her 70th birthday. I arrived as planned and went straight to the hospital where she was admitted Friday night with severe diverticular pain. I've been here since. They finally pegged the persistent fevers as broncchial pneumonia and have her on three antibiotics, oxygen, and IV fluids. Her fever keeps spiking to 102 and we're waiting for the next round of blood culture results.

I am insanely grateful that I'd already taken four days of vacation for this trip and bought flight insurance so I can change my return if I need to.

I'm too exhausted to add something witty and or profound, so take it as read.
