Well, i've had a hellish week. My mom had cardiac surgery and i was sure she was going to die. You know when you just have a bad feeling about something? Well, i flew to Johannesburg and then we went to the hospital the next morning. She was admitted,and when they started with the IV's, i started getting really nervous. Anyway, i got to chill with her for a couple of hours and even fell asleep for a while. Then the doctors and nurses started rolling in and i got really nervous. I went down with her all the way to the theater. Anyway, we (my dad and i) left her there and had to kill a few hours so we went shopping. I got a really nice Nine West bag (guilty parents spend more money than they should!), and then we had lunch. When we called the hospital, they said she wasn't out of surgery yet, so i started to panic a little. Anyway, we called again an hour later (4 pairs of shoes later) and they said she was okay! I'm glad she's alright. This all happened on Wednesday and she went home today. She's fine and walking around and back to her old self. She should be mostly healed up in about 10 days. I'm glad i didn't lose my mom. I think i would have lost it if she had died. Anyway, i don't really have to stress again for another 5 to7 years. I'm back at school and life is going on as usual. My first exam is on tuesday! Shit! oh well, i just have to work really hard these next few weeks, then i'll have 3 whole months of freedom. Like i said before, life is good...
