you know the drill

Dad in hospital again. He's only been out for a couple of weeks, but he was in trouble at home so Mom took him in. By the time I talked to her he was already a lot better, but he's dehydrated despite the edema and his blood counts are low, so more endoscopy is in the cards.

The good thing I did was call Mom back when she left me a message: she started off saying only what had been in the message, but then she kept talking -- about how things had gone down and whether he might not have wanted treatment, which was really good for her to get out. (I mean, she has her sister nearby, I hope she's talking to someone anyway, but this way I know she is.)

bad update is bad
