it's funny how you can fuss about something and then in the blink of an eye it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things.
my grandmother's in the hospital with heart problems. it wasn't a big surprise. i think it's been coming a long time, but my stubborn grandmother decided to wait until yesterday to get some help. she was going to wait until monday but got scared and went to the doctor who then sent her to the hospital. she's doing a lot better, they gave her meds and are trying to regulate her heart. if that doesn't work she'll get a pacemaker. it's no big deal stuff, but it's funny how it becomes a big deal when it's happening to someone you love.
on top of this my mother was sick and couldn't even go to the hospital to comfort her own mother. my dad was with grams mostly and i went up a couple times in the evening with him and then this morning with mom. poor mom had the stomach bug. my mom must be stronger than i think. i think i was way more upset about this whole thing than my mom. or maybe mom's just not showing it. or maybe mom was so sick she really couldn't care at the time (that sounds worse than i mean). maybe mom's realized that grams might die someday. i know in my heart that will happen too but the human of me is still scared becos i love her so much. grams is 84 and never had serious health problems until now (with exception of some back problems last year, which might have contributed to this heart scare).
hubby came for us after work after stopping to get us some clothes (all i took along was some knitting and the boy's school bag, i even forgot his bag of lizards and frogs). the boy was a trooper despite the fact that he doesn't have much to play with at grams (some duplo blocks he outgrew and some cars and tractors).
i got almost the foot of gram's magic loop sock done. this is an unfortunate by-product of waiting in a hospital. dad even commented on wishing he knew how to knit or crochet so he could have something to do while waiting like this.
guess that's it.
