Today has been a rough day.
I picked my brother up, he was in more pain than I've ever seen him in, he is 12 years older than me and I've never seen it.
I took him to the emergency room, they found a mass in his abdomen. It dont look good.
While at the Hospital, my mom came by to see him, and she fell unresponsive. She is okay now, but still dont know what caused it. Now I have to tell her the news about her oldest son. (I'm the youngest of 3)..
Today sucks.

You got ‘em, pal. Good luck to both your mom and brother. Hopefully both issues turn out to be relatively minor.

First of all, thank you for the thoughts and prayers. It means a lot lot.
Update, my brother went for a biopsy yesterday evening and although it wasn't good, it's a lot better than expected. So far no cancer, he has a aneurism on his aorta in his abdomen that they thought was a cancerous mass prior. Today they are having to do surgery to repair it. If it ruptures he would be dead in a minute with no way to stop the bleeding. So although good news, still on pins and needles.
My mom has a bad phobia of hospitals since my dad died, so when she came to see him in the emergency room, (as hard as she tried) she went down. She is in good shape at home, she is just a nervous wreck worried about her son.
Hopefully the surgery goes well and she can calm down.
Again, thanks for the thoughts and prayers.

A Pride is a Family. ROAR LIONS I had a feeling your mom’s episode was caused by the emergency situation and being at the hospital. I don’t handle those scenarios well either ever since I was a kid. I start to get a panic attack, etc. I’m praying for your brother. Thanks for the update.

Just admitted my wife into the Hospital with covid... she's not doing to well.
She's a nurse, I cant be with her, I have it too, I have to take care of the kids and try to take care of myself.
I really feel like I'm going off the deep end, and I'm usually the one who has it together....

Please keep us updated. My mom was in the hospital when I visited last year over Halloween. I was very impressed with the new facility in Florence. I was always used to ECM (where I was born).

Brandon, hope you’re wife is doing better this morning. Hope you’re doing ok, as well. I often wonder how single parents make it, since I’m usually exhausted if my wife works and I’m alone with our kids. Your kids are your top priority, but make sure you take care of yourself.

But I'm so tired.
