Well. The beginning is always the hardest part to start.
So I will start with an old story…
As you all know, last weekend my grandma was put in the hospital. Sunday she was released. She’s doing fine. But the thing is what I tell you all next…
While we were waiting to hear from the doctors in the emergency room, my 40 year old over dramatic Aunt came and got us all. She walked over, threw her hand in a circle without saying a word, and said that the whole family should come. It was the longest walk of my life. It was only 10 feet around a blind corner. Then I saw my grandpa. He was red-faced and teary eyed and sitting with his hands in his lap. I have never seen him this way. I felt my heart hit my feet and I nearly passed out. I stood there and had an anxiety attack.
Turns out they ran my grandfather out of the emergency room because they had to resuscitate my grandma several times. They were worried he was going to have a heart attack while they worked on her. Margaret was just pissed she got tossed out of the room.
My grandma apparently died several times that night. They had to resuscitate her at their house and feed her oxygen in the ambulance. They had to do it again a few times at the hospital. When they got her stabilized, they let family go see her.
Mom found this out over a call with Aunt Linda. Aunt Linda had just gotten back from over there and felt the need to call Mom about that and about this…
Talking to my grandma is like talking to a child sometimes. Lately she’s been wondering why we haven’t come to visit. Margaret told Grandma that it was because Grandma called Mom a “Bitch”. Which is entirely untrue.
Apparently on the same day Grandma got out of the hospital, Aunt Linda went and filled their medications. When she went to Grandma and Grandpa’s, someone had went and gotten hamburgers and milkshakes.
Grandma did not “choke” on a pill. She was butted in the place where the stomach meets the chest and it knocked the breath out of her. What actually happened, I don’t know. The doctors never told the rest of us. Whomever was in the room when the emergency room doctor showed up told the doctor to tell Grandpa because he was her husband. The woman that said that was Margaret we assume.
Margaret also states that my parents are lazy, snobbish, and sleep until 1 pm. So, a fight might go down between Aunt Linda with Mom on her side and against Aunt Margaret. If such a thing happens, chances are I will have video of it and I will post it here.
The reason all of this is mentioned because this Saturday is Grandma’s birthday.
