can't win for losing
Recovery from surgery is going great. I go back to work tomorrow, albeit working from home. The kitties are now home and we'll never know for sure if they were truly poisoned or not (i wonder if they have an immunity to iocane powder? ;-), but we needed to go follow through with what the vet and poison control recommended, just in case.
On the other hand.
I just got a call from my sister and my mother is in the hospital. They think that she may have an arterial blockage. They don't think it's a heart attack, but just signs of a blockage and/or angina. Not sure what this all means. They don't know enough yet. Anyway, about 2a.m. PST mom and dad went to the hospital as mom was feeling tingling in her left fingers and toes, her lower jaw hurt and she was having problems breathing. They didn't want to call me when they went to the hospital because they don't want to stress me out during my recovery until they know for sure. I chastised them that I'm fine, they shouldn't hold back on me and let me know earlier this morning. Some people's parents. Yeesh. Anyway, they sound good and the doctors aren't rushing around freaking out. She sounded good. Dad sounds good. Anyway, still no true idea of what's going on yet and then what will be done about it, but.....I need this like I need another hole in my head.
Life is never boring, eh?

Sorry to hear that your Mom is having some health issues. I hope she is feeling better soon. And I hope you have a quick and uneventful recovery too.
