Guys Mom is having chest pains... won’t let me take her into the ER but agree to let me take her to the walk in. If you’re the praying type would appreciate it!
Update: went to walk in, they said go right to ER (me: “That’s what I said!”). I’m now waiting on a bench outside the ER because Covid guidelines mean I can’t go in until she’s in a room.
Appreciate all the thoughts & prayers!

The good thing about masks is they keep your face warm when it’s 48 degrees... might still wait in my car tho.
So update... they’re trying to get her a room... doctor is concerned cuz there’s a difference in her EKG from last time she was here. Wanted her to let me know she’d be staying but she thinks he meant in the ER not the hospital lol.
We only live a couple mins from the hospital so I have ran home to per & eat lunch... figure I am no good to anyone if I pass out in the car.
She texted me and told me to stay home until we know what’s happening. It sucks but what can I do waiting in the car?
To all of you today: thank you so much for your friendship, support, love, kindness, and prayers. Even if I’m not responding to all of them individually I appreciate it so much.

I am currently on the couch at home hydrating, texting with her occasionally, and hydrating. I also ate 3 chocolate chip cookies after lunch and am half watching Last Resort.
She just called she still doesn’t have a room but she says it sounds like he said he admitted her to the hospital... some of her bloodwork is apparently not right. She said she will call when there’s more news.
She says they are doing more bloodwork.
Dog kept crying and couldn’t figure out what she wanted. She wanted to be lifted into Mom’s bed to sleep.

She just called and said they are admitting her overnight. She’s finally in a room in the ER not upstairs yet. They don’t think she had a heart attack but they’re not sure. Her EKG is off & her bloodwork is weird. I can’t go visit her until her Covid test comes back negative.
I’m now laying in my mom’s bed with the dog
We are going to curl up and stress nap unless she calls again
I’m super tired myself and like it’s hitting me now. Very scary. I hate this cuz I’m used to Mom being the caretaker and it’s really overwhelming when I realize how much I rely on her.
I also hate not having the info because not being there in the room with her I can’t ask the doctors any questions. I don’t know if she’s playing it down or what’s really happening.
Times like these when I hate being a (mostly) only child. I thought about calling my aunt and letting her know what was happening but she’s 84 and I didn’t want to stress HER out unnecessarily until we know what’s going on for sure.
If things get really dire I can call my cousin maybe but she has a lot in my plate taking care of my aunt and uncle and her other grandma. My half sister lives in DC but she might come up if I need help m. Hopefully it won’t come to that.
Hopefully this is all just worry over nothing and a storm in a teacup.
Did text my closest local friend and let her know what was happening just in cases.
Have been venting all day to y’all and texting to my friend who lives in TX and some with one of the online boys but I figure it was good to let someone local know.
