In which Life continues to up the ante....

Screw discretion.

Charles was admitted to the hospital tonight with severe pneumonia, hypoxemia, and electrolyte imbalances. If I'd waited until morning to bring him into the ER, he very well might have died. And I dragged him into the ER tonight, not so much because he told me he thought he was dying, but because we have a date to see Star Trek tomorrow, and I wanted to make sure he'd be well enough to go.

Mental Note: If spouse says he thinks he's dying, take him to ER immediately.

Prayers would be welcome.

Actually, the guilt over that is pretty incredible. :( But at least I brought him in. My Mom lost her first husband younger than this, and I feel I've been too cavalier; young doesn't mean immortal. Technically, I guess we're not even young anymore.


I am staying up much too late to avoid going to an empty bed. Not bright, considering what tomorrow has in store....
