My mom had a heart attack yesterday. She'd been having chest pains every day for the last two weeks and didn't tell anyone, not even the Doctor. The only reason she admitted it yesterday was because the doctor pushed her to admit it. She saw the cardiologist last week and just told her that the pains were coming "more often." This is me livid. Like so livid. Oi. I knew things were worse then she was saying, but I had no idea how much worse. She never wants to bother anyone and doesn't understand the simple prospect that preventive measures mean things like this don't have to happen. I love my mother to pieces, but I'm just so fucking angry right now.
She's going to have a shunt put in, but not today. Still hasn't seen a doctor but she's on the cardiac monitoring floor. They've done a shit ton of blood tests and stuff She'll be in a few days to be stabilized. Oi. I'm home with my sister because neither one of us do hospitals very well. Just... fuck my life. For serious. I'm so tired of being the grown up in my family.
