I am sitting here at the hospital with my mom who was admitted last night. I think she really wanted me to miss the 2:00 am release.

I am bored out of my mind and then I decided to pull out my lappie and play.

They are getting ready to take her for a 4 hour test. YIKES! I think I will start pulling my hair out soon.

I should have brought my REV and some dies, I did that for her last surgery. The people in the waiting room were looking at me like I was crazy, then it clicked and I had other ladies sitting around making cuts taking their minds off their loved ones. I made some new friends and introduced some people to the wonderful world of die cutting.

Maybe once I pull all my hair out I can take a picture and scrap it for fond memories.

We'll try to keep you sane... ;D

Hugs to your mom. I hope she'll be okay!!!

Sometimes I look at it at work on my phone. I have to be stealthy though!

Hope your mom is ok!

OH! I hope your mom will be okay. Hospitals are no fun. You poor thing. Prayers to you all. <><

How's your Mom doing? Keep us updated please.

Thanks for asking about her. They have her stable at the moment. Planning on a cardiolite stress test in the am.

They still don't know what is causing her chest pains, but she has been ill for a while now, so they are trying to rule things out.

I agree...hospitals are absolutely no fun, but thank goodness they're there when we need them! When my husband was ill with a long-term ailment (Guillain-Barre syndrome), we made some wonderful friends. I sincerely hope that they can quickly identify what's happening with your mom, and that she will be okay very, very soon. Take care of yourself, too!

Bernadette, Please keep us updated. I also hope they get to the bottom of her problem quickly. It is hard not knowing. Laura. <><
