ARGH!! *headdesk headdesk headdesk*

I love my Aunty Eve to bits but there are times when the urge to throttle her is somewhat overpowering.

I rang her this afternoon, because we always talk on a Sunday, and got no answer. This was about 3pm. OK, I think, she's probably visiting.

No answer at 4pm

No answer at 5pm

By 6pm, I'm fretting and biting my fingernails.

By 6.30pm, I've snapped like a twig and rung her friend Jo, who is my emergency contact along with her neighbours. I picked her on the off chance Eve was spending the evening with her.

She wasn't.

SHE'S BEEN IN HOSPITAL SINCE WEDNESDAY AND DIDN'T LET JO RING ME BECAUSE SHE DIDN'T WANT ME TO BE BOTHERED!!!

Bothered?!?

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

*headdesks some more*

Apparently, there was a problem with her blood, she's had two blood transfusions BUT they think they've sorted it and she should be home tomorrow. Jo is going to ring me if she ISN'T released so that I will go down Tuesday to visit. If she is, I will ring Monday and use every bit of willpower I have not to yell at her.

Thank GOD she's ok.

*totters off for a strong cup of tea*

Once again, who needs kids when we've got aged relatives to drive us batty.

Ain't it the truth?

ARGGHH!!!! Why do they do this to us???
Last night, at a party, I was having this very discussion-a friend's father had a mild heart attack, and the family was discussing should they notify the brother who was on vacay? OY.

Oy is the right word! I hope they told him in the end?

[e-musings.livejournal.com]

Yes, they called him on his vacay and he was angry that they were holding back and told them NEVER to do that again.

*hugs* Hope all is soon well with Aunty Eve, dear.

Thank you! *hugs* Hopefully she'll be home tomorrow.

Doctor said to mind how you use your voice. No screaming at the poor old lady, as much as you want to. It is in neither of your best interests. :)

Hope she does better. She must think the world of you, and the last thing she wants is you worrying. Got to at least respect that some, as frustrating as it is. *Hugs.*

I promise not to yell at her :) Not that I would, it'd upset her.

And yes, I respect that, but if it had been the other way around, I'd not hear the end of it forever :P

Eeep!

My god, this would have driven me crazy - much crazier than worrying about her actually being in hospital! Don't they get that it's much worse not to know?

Take care of yourself you know; worrying about Aunty Eve, plus throat plus work plus spider mafia...big hugs and recommendation of mighty beer for you!

Aww thanks :) *hugs* I'm plotting mighty cider for very soon - I have 3 days off next week and there will be Mitchy pampering. Oh yes :)
