Sooo... Not really having a good week.

My grandpa is in the hospital with pneumonia. He's tough though so I think he'll be alright.

And my mom has lupus. Or they're pretty much essentially sure of it. Her blood test confirms some type of autoimmune disease and lupus is the only one that explains a lot of problems she has.

I'm honestly not sure how to take it. When my mom said that it made my heart skip a beat. I know that some people with lupus don't make it past 5 years, but that it's a smaller amount. I also know that a significant amount make it past 20 years, as well.

I don't know what I'd do if I lost my mom.

All of these things are happening at once. Yesterday I basically cried for a few hours for a combination of things and now I found out about this.

I have to be optimistic though.

I'm seeing Iron Man on Monday? My boyfriend won tickets through AICN. I might give mine up for his friend, though. I'm not sure if my name was on it, but if it isn't, one of his friends is a big fan and didn't win so I feel guilty. It also means I'm missing the whole thing happening with "It's all part of the plan" Dark Knight stuff... Which most people think is another trailer.
