My mom's in the hospital
7 months ago
General
This morning started off really bad. My mom was coughing and then began having trouble breathing, so I had to call my brother and an ambulance to take her to the ER. I ended up sitting there for hours with my brother while the doctors examined her. They diagnosed her with Human metapneumovirus (respiratory virus), which isn’t COVID-19, but it’s like a cold, only worse.
Thankfully, the medics gave her the right medication, and by the time we got to the ER, she was stable. she has to be hooked up to a ventilator so she can breath.
Nine hours later, she had slightly recovered, but there’s still a long way to go. It's been pure exhaustion for me because I had to stay with her and take calls from family and relatives, as my mom couldn't speak without coughing.
This whole day has been a nightmare. I was there from the morning until 11:00pm and spray the home with disinfectant I can't do much cleaning due to how tired I was, and I have to go back again tomorrow and get the full info of her condition.
As I always say, everything always goes wrong for me.

You.
You keep getting knocked down but have the maturity and responsibility to keep going and push through. You are a person that will gets things done when nobody else will. You don't get the credit for all you do. Well I notice it and appreciate you for who you are and what you do.
This world needs more realistic and responsible people like you in it.
Thank you for being there when people need you, even if they don't know why.
My best wishes to your mother.
Hoping for the best.
