Last Thursday I recieved a call telling me mom was going to the doctors.. The doctor called me and informed me mom was being sent to the hospital for cellulitus... Hmm, a quick iv for a day or two I'm thinking not so bad.... I get to the hospital around midnight. Mom sitting in a chair next to the nurses staition. not surprising.. I sat next to her hugging her then looked at her swollen leg.............HOLY CRAP..... Her outside rt.calf shows not only severe cellulitus but deep large wounds, black in color. Not knowing what cellulitus was I looked it up befor going to the hospital,,,, THIS IS NOT CELLULITUS.. I asked the head nurse what it was and she told me it was cellulitus and that it was midnight and I had to leave... hehehe I explained to her again who i was and that I was not going to leave untill i spoke to a doctor.. She called security, :))))) hahaha
I explained to security who I was, where i lived and showed him(them) moms leg. I WONT LEAVE WITHOUT SEEING A DOCTOR!!! " if this was your mom what would you do?" security found me a doctor....
OK, day 4 now.. three infectious special doctors are helping us, looks like surgery.. They tell me this was from a untreated trauma.. maybe 2-3 months old.. HA, dont think so.... explained to them last time i was here. she was fine. never/ever, anything like this on her body anywhere............
leaving us with test after test.....
I sit in this hotel room alone, again alone.. sister is on vacation at the beach 4 hours from here, I drove 3 hours.... dont get it? UGGG I THOUGHT SHE WAS ON MY TEAM.. What the hell am i missing???
Time for me to go to the hospital..
Thanks for letting me vent..
