So, I was happy when I wrote the last update as my family member had been released and my family thought that everything would be fine. I was terribly wrong it turns out.
Over the last weekend, she had to be admitted back into the hospital. I don't like going into specifics because it really isn't anyone's business but I owe an explanation to those of you who are kind to me here and why I have been away. They had to be taken back because they only ended up getting worse and it got to a point where she was not responsive but not in any kind of coma.
Long story short for now. The family member is my mother and she may be dying. Legitimately dying and not just a metaphor for the pain she is in. Her liver is failing and if they cannot stabilize her, she will be gone. I am ultimately left feeling not only very worried and sad about this but also terrified and angry at the world right now. I know nobody did anything to me or my mother but no one deserves this kind of illness (cirrhosis) and again, we don't know if she'll be able to even be stabilized let alone "better." Whatever that may mean in this situation.
Anyway, that's why I'm not around and cannot be because I am running constantly back and forth from my place, to my parents' place and the hospital. So yes, I am in horrible spirits, I am super upset and no good to anyone in this condition. So as soon as things end up happening how they're going to happen, I may not be back for quite some time depending on how these things turn out. Sorry for the bummer letter to those that care but that's where I am at right now.
I hope you are all doing better than I am at this moment in time because honestly, this whole month has literally sucked for myself and my family as a whole.
I will update again once I know more about what will happen and what steps we might be able to take. Thank you to those who care and continue to support me with kind words and concern. I truly appreciate you all for doing that as you are my true friends online. Thank you again and I hope the next time I log in, it is with good and not completely horrible news.
See you all later on and keep safe out there.
