so where do i start? well first my classes started on monday. i am taking an art history class and a philosophy logic class. the logic class looks like it will be one of my hardest that i have taken, i have read the first chapter 3 times and still dont get it i made the mistake of ordering my art text book off of ebay and still have not gotten it and i need my book to complete my assignment that will be due on thursday
i am trying to get over a nasty cold that i have had for the past three days, sore itchy throat, coughing and congestion. to top it all of my mom called me yesterday telling me my brother is in the hospital. apparently it all started on sunday when he called my mom and said there were bugs in his hands. my sister who lives closer to him then my mom and i do, took him to the hospital and the ER doctor basically said this was an emergency room and that my brother thinking there are bugs in his hands was not an emergency.
So later that same night he called my mom back and said he was going crazy that bugs were all over him and that he thought he was going to die. my mom was able to calm him down and said she would come out on monday. he had a doctors appt that day so my mom took him. my mom called me and said his hands, feet, and face were swollen for some unknown reason. the doctor gave him a cortisone shot and sent him home. he then kept on and on about the bugs so my mom took him to a different hospital. they ended up admiting him for the swelling and his heart rate and BP being really high. they have done all kinds of test and cant find anything wrong. my mom called me tonight (tuesday) and said they are going to do a ct scan because they think his stomach may be pushing on his lungs. if the ct scan comes of neg they said they will release him from the hospital. the doctors want him to go see a pulmonary specialists but my brother refuses and said its because of all the bugs and that when they do the ct scan the bugs will hide. i dont know what the hell is wrong with him.
i know he takes a lot of different medication for health problems, he has narcolipsy, high BP, sleep apnea, and an enlarged heart. he has been on these meds for a while now and dont know why all of a sudden he would start hallucinating. so we are now trying to find out if there is something medically wrong with him. if not they will release him from the hospital and my family will have to try and get him some type of mental health help.
to top this all of my brother in law called me today and said that his wife (my sister) is too stressed out to help my mom and that we were basically on our own! thanks for being there during a family crisis you bastard! i dont know how my sister really feels i havent been able to talk to her but i know there is some bad blood between my brother and brother in law and maybe my brother in law sees this as a chance for revenge.
i dont know maybe i am just over reacting. i am tired, over whelmed, worried about my brother and my mom (she has her own health issues to deal with). my mom relies so much on me that i have to be strong for her. i of course have my husband to turn to but sometimes i still feel alone and helpless. guess that is why i am spilling my guts now. anyways sorry for the long post and if you made it all the way down to the bottom congratulations! also sorry if this is random and jumpy but i dont really feel like going back to make it make more sense.
