Close call
I got to the hospital in Lynchburg about noon today. Just as I arrived (literally hadn't taken off my coat) the doctor calls us into a room and says my mother had a heart attack about 30 seconds after they gave her the anesthesia for the hip replacement surgery. They put in an emergency stint to clear a blood clot and she's resting now in cardiac ICU.
Holy shit.
Holy shit.
