My mom is in the hospital so any good wishes / prayers would be appreciated. Friday I drove to Chattanooga and picked up my aunt and we drove to Detroit to see my mom. (My aunt doesn’t like flying.) We drove back to Chattanooga Monday and on Tuesday I drove back to Nashville. Driving and crying — my eyes are like 2 piss-holes in the snow, as they say. I will probably be going back up there soon because I have to do some aftercare research up in Detroit. I need to find out about work and FMLA etc beforehand, though. I’ll post here if I’ll be on hiatus or whatever.

I’m very sad about the whole thing.
