... One of those days...

Original post by bemyyoko

My dad just called to tell me that my mom is in the hospital.
They went to the ER last night and they are admitting her.

Without getting too personal, she has a long list of serious health conditions including diabetes and has had a heart attack.

She went to the ER because of a diabetic complication, but they are keeping her there because she got woozy and dizzy and her heart rate is abnormal.

My mom spends a lot of time in the hospital... but getting the phone call that she's there never gets easier.

Sorry to be a downer... I just needed to 'talk'

*ETA*
Small update at the bottom of the thread

*UPDATE*-Monday Night
They moved my mom out of the unit she was in. She no longer needs 24/7 heart monitering which is a step in the right direction.
She will probably be there for a few days because her foot (the reason she went there in the first place) is not healing the way they would like.
She is on IV antibiotics.

She sounded much better on the phone today.

Oh no!!! I hope she feels better soon!!!

Let me know if you need to borrow the baby to go see her.... Maybe it'll make her feel better faster.

Let me know if you need anything!
