My scarcity is due to sudden wtfery within my family. I'm not sure how long I'm going to continue to be slow. It depends muchly so on how the situation progresses.
On the 7th we took my Granddad in for cataract surgery. He's 83 and was in reasonably good health, barring a fight with prostate cancer and hip replacement a handful of years ago. The surgery went well, his vision improved, and... that night he had problems.
On the 8th, I took him back to the eye doctor to see if it was the drugs. Took him to his primary care. Took him to the ER. After ten hours sitting in the hallway, we were admitted.
Next day, his cardiologist just happens to be on hospital duty and walking by his room and of course recognizes him. Walks in. Sees that he's been having a heart attack for the past two days. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.
So. Granddad's been on life support since the 9th at a hospital over an hour away from our house. We've been picking up my Nanna to take her to see him every night since then, besides one, to see him.
Nanna starts having chest pains. We take her to the ER while we're there. Nothing confirmed. Take her to her doctor. Might be gallstones. They'll run tests in a few days.
The effing dog starts limping terribly. What I don't even. He's sorta better now but not totally. We've got our eye on it.
