gothams3rdrobinGot a phonecall from my Mam a little while ago, asking me to bring over my phone charger when I go collect Rowan, as she can't find the one for hers which is the same model. (They were cheap and it's her back-up phone)
Okay, says I, and hangs up, momentarily wondering why she was at home this afternoon. She then calls me back a minute or two later to explain that the reason she needs the charger is that Grampy had a bad night and the doctors called Nan in. Mam and Dad have been at the hospital with them all day, and they might need to go back in. Mam wants the phone for Dad to keep in touch with her, as he doesn't have his own.
The reason they didn't call me this morning to let me know, apparently, is because of Rowan having football and going to see his other grandparents this afternoon. I guess the hospital is somewhat of a bear to get to and back, but...
Mam told me that Grampy's heart has been giving him trouble, and his condition's been up and down like a yo-yo so the doctors are concerned. She reckons there's nothing to indicate that this is it, but sometimes I wonder if they've all be sheltering me this past year. It's true I don't want to 'deal' with the fact I'm slowly losing my only remaining grandfather, and I certainly don't want us all sitting around his bed waiting for him to go, but still I wonder.
*sigh* I was having a good day, messing around with my editing software....

Besides, I need someone I can actually physically hug, right about now.
