Reply #11: Spent the morning in the ER with my Mom.

[davsand]

I was on the highway--about five miles from the exit I use to get to my office--and my cell rang. It was my Mom asking me to drive her to the ER. She had been up all night with pain in her left arm (remember--she is 79 years old) and her Doc's office told her to just go to the ER when she called this morning to try and get an appointment to be seen.

They ran an EKG and said it looked fine then ran blood tests looking for enzymes that would indicate a heart attack. The doc said those blood tests came back "Pristine." She was screened for stroke and all her reflexes were fine. They have NO idea why she is having pains in her left arm, but the doc at the hospital urged her to go see her regular doc to try and figure it out.

While I was otherwise occupied, my office had some kind of meltdown with one of the secretaries threatening to quit.



I think there is a lot of odd energy afoot today but i also think it is a general free floating sort of angst rather than anything directed specifically at me or anyone else in particular. I think this stuff is just hitting some susceptible folks really wrong, and I will be really happy when it all finally moves along.

It may be like a kidney stone, but this too shall pass.
