Re: random stuff on writing woes

[marika]

for my dad's birthday, my sister made reservations at Marsha Brown's that I
wrote about before

we made them for 3pm
she said they asked her if it was a special occassion, she said yes father's
birthday, and they asked her for his name so probably they will have a
little candle cake thing for him or something, she guessed? she didn't ask.

i called today and the same thing, they asked what occasion and I said,
mother's birthday. They do put a candle on whatever dessert that person
orders

the buthers are both eating ok it seems, even though ma still wasn't eating
much of anything solid before tato's birthday

but now, she's been falling, cracked her skulll open, she takes something
like neuroleption

says it makes her dizzy

i wonder if my aunt is finished all her tests already. she complained she
is falling apart and hasn't been feeling well since last year

[marika]

Mary's daughter told her that she is going to be in Philadelphia for
"Mother's Day Weekend" - I wrote that up pretty much here back in May.

so we planned to go out there to meet her. The plans were flexible (of
course). we drove -- Saturday morning. We went to see the the Frank Lloyd
Wright's synagog and a few founding fathers high points, and or coursea few
other musts.

It was such a good opportunity to go see my parents and surprise them
because they had been in the hospital the week before

[marika]

apparently my mother on a Monday evening in May got fever (102.+),tylenol
wasn't helping my father took her to "emergency",
they did blood tests and did all sorts of other tests through 4 am. they
let her go home because they couldn't find anything. but the fever fell and
they just said she should tell her family doctor. the next day though she
got the fever again. and bad stomach pains. she had an appointment with
her family doctor on Friday but she was spiking a terrible fever Wednesday

he called the doctor but his staff said to wait

but then, on Thursday "emergency" called and said they had cultured
something really deadly

so dad took her to the hospital, where he had just come from himself

so they gave her antibiotics and ivs. she wasn't allowed to eat solid food
and she had to stay f48 hours under watch.

It was really weird, she still can't articulate what they said is wrong.
