Oh hun, that's terrible. I'm so sorry. ;A;

I hope your mother's okay.

._. My brother called like ten minutes ago. She's still out of it. A little more lucid, but confunded. She doesn't recognize Vern, and I don't want to know if she'll recognize the rest of us.

So what exactly happened? o_O Is this a sudden thing, or has it been building for a while?

My mother's liver is slowly dying, and her ammonia levels are, quote-unquote, enough to kill her, except where she was perfectly sane. It's the ammonia influx that would, over the days of the summer, put her in states of incredibly mild confusion (which Vern plays with; she is never amused) and she was at times sleeping all day and sometimes she'd be up-but-not, and the rest she'd be mildly active and up and about and doing things.

It was NEVER at this point. ._. I omitted a detail or two to her physical state of what was happening within that hour, but all in all, it was never like this.

.___. It's kind of scary. And worse for you, I imagine, since you're not there to help keep things together. *hugs*

PS: Your mother's partner sounds like an asshole, and I would like to kill him for you.

It's frustrating to tears. ;.; And I would be up there in a heartbeat...except my first class is TOMORROW and if I want to graduate with my GPA in the 3.6, I can't skip out on the first week. And it's even more frustrating that if I were to go see her, and she were lucid, she'd be happy to see me, but not happy I skipped for her. Luckily enough, I've Thursdays and Fridays off, and school's off on next Monday, so if things aren't cleared up, I'm back up there this Thursday, no stop.

I would actually take you up on that, because then they wouldn't get me for it, because I'll be at the top of their suspect list. I've made my intentions that known. :D
