Ten Hours in the ER with Mom

[sir_lone_wolf]

No, she didn't try anything that was self-harmful. She became ill on Thursday with some severe gastro-intestinal distress. I brought her something to help relive her symptoms and witnessed, for the first time ever, someone nearly delirious with agonizing pain. The misery of the event was relatively short-lived. On Friday morning, there were some lingering conditions that dictated that she go see her doctor. The Dr told us that she'd better go to the ER for further evaluation. That was around 2pm on Friday. I stayed with her and provided comfort and calm, and helped her through the various medical interviews from the hospital staff. I stayed until after midnight, when her dozing naps finally extended into what resembled sleep. Going back there today, hoping the imminent snow storm won't be too bad.
