no Christmas cheer for my mom

My mom is in the hospital with pneumonia. She had been sounding bad for some time and my dad tried to get her in to the doctor. They said yesterday that they could get her in on the 15th. He knew they had a cancellation because his friend, who goes to the same doctor, couldn't make it that day. "Oh we've filled that spot with 4 other people." That's bull; no one's that busy. They told my dad if she's so bad to take her to the hospital and that's what he did. She'll be there through Christmas. Poor Mom.

I'm going there today to see her. Pneumonia is so dangerous for normally healthy people and scary for people like my mom.

Then I tried to call my dad last night and he accidentally took his phone off the hook again. Poor dad, too. He's so tired.
