A family emergency

Mon Jul 13, 2009, 7:45 AM
  • Mood: Nervous
Hi everyone.

Well, I am in Canada again. It was an unexpected visit...under pretenses that I'm not too happy about. My mother was rushed to the hospital about two weeks ago now because she had a massive cardiac arrest. She almost didn't make it, but is pulling through just fine now. To be doing this well considering the severity of the arrest, she is doing excellently. She is at home now... but the last two weeks have been a nightmare for me, to say the least. I've been spending every day at the hospital, along with my sister, and have just been spending as much time with her as possible. She has a long road to recovery ahead of her now... and let me tell you, its been a wake up call for everyone. Apparently heart problems run in my family, so I need to take extra good care of myself by eating better and exercising more. I'm just glad she made it!
Obviously, this means I'm not in my school course at the moment. I emailed my instructor and told her, and she told me she was going to keep my spot open. but its been about two weeks now that I've missed... and I don't know if, once I go back, I'll be able to catch up again. If thats the case, then I can probably re-enroll for the course in September. I'm hoping to have a job somewhere by then though...
So things have been a bit crazy for me. And obviously, I haven't take any photos in the last little while. I rushed out of Ireland so quickly that all I brought with me was 3 pairs of jeans and 4 different shirts. I didn't even check any of my luggage! And I don't have my camera here with me right now...so I can't take any photos until I get back to Ireland. I'm not even sure when I'll be back in Ireland because I don't have a return ticket.
However, since my mom is out of the hospital now, I could be going home with my husband on the 17th, which is the friday coming up. My husband came over here on the 10th for a week to be with me and see my mom as well.
But anyways, thats whats going on right now. Hopefully things will be back to normal soon.
