**The title is supposed to say NO ONE...not ON ONE... LOL**
With my parents getting older, it has resulted in some additional health problems and exacerbations of old ones. I try and keep myself pretty well informed, when I know about stuff..b/c hey, theyre my 'rents and I kinda want them around for a while.
My mom has a habit of NOT telling me when either her or my dad has been to the ER until up to 2 weeks later, b/c she doesnt think "its important" and its a "Oh, by the way..your dad was in the ER for etc..."
I can not tell you how I ABSOLUTELY hate that. Is it too much to ask to be kept informed of my parents health from my parents themselves? I dont care if its a small problem, I WANT TO KNOW!!!!!!!!! they know this, Ive told them this and everytime she agrees to tell me a little bit sooner..but then conveniently forgets.
So, my mom was in the ER yesterday for 5 hours, and found out she has a blood clot in her leg. Shes diabetic and already on blood thinners, but still, this could potentially lead to bigger problems. But she was discahrged yesterday and no one's told me SHIT until today at 4:00pm when my husband mentions he's the one who drove her home.
When I ask why he didnt tell me sooner, he says "Oh, well I didnt think it was important."
I carry a cell phone for a FUCKIN reason and can always be reached my text. Im getting to the point where I will just stop caring.
I do realize that my parents dont have to tell me anything, but this whole thing just upsets me.
