A Respite and Another Hospital Run

Well today is day 7 of my respite from mom.

My sister came up last Monday night to have mom come and stay at her place for the month of July... or til mom decides she's had enough and wants to come back.

Mom was a bit peeved when my sister came Monday night to bring her down her house.  Mom said she was feeling rushed... but the fact is mom had been packing and unpacking all week long in anticipation of this stay at my sister's, so we weren't rushing her.

Since she felt this way, I decided not to call her for fear she'd say come and get me now!  

This afternoon, my sister called to tell me she was at the ER with my mom... well her hubby was in ER room with mom, she was in ER waiting area... hubby went with mom in ambulance.

Seems mom had one of those spells where she becomes lethargic, unresponsive and starts moaning.  My b-i-l was with her the entire time that preceded this episode.  

My guess is, as was the case the last time this happened, they will admit her, do rounds of tests for a few days and they won't find what caused it.

It's always a parent, isn't it?

Love her dearly and hope she's home soon.  Still awaiting an update.  More to come.
