Today was a long, hard day...
Today was a long, hard day. I spent it in the emergency room again. This time with my mom. They admitted her. She has emphysema/COPD and is battling bronchitis. She's pretty sick and frightened. I think she's really much improved since this morning when I took her in. She was BAD this morning...it was scary. I was strong and reassuring and in control all day...I needed to be strong for her. I stayed with her from about 7am until 8pm when she was calm and settled in for the night. Now I'm going to have a good cry for no particular reason...other than it's so hard to watch my mom when she's sick and frightened and fighting for every breath...so now I need to cry. And then I'm going to bed.
