Anyway, she was supposed to have an angioplasty last Tuesday but then an angiogram showed a third blockage. Resulting in the decision to conduct a bypass surgery. Which then got scheduled for the Saturday gone by. And fortunately, all went well. She was in the ICU till last night and is now in the ward. I haven't spoken to her since she's been out of surgery as she's tired. But I hope to talk to her by Thursday. One other good thing for mum is the support of neighbours and family friends...they have been so very helpful right from the start!
So anyway, you can see why I haven't been in the mood to blog. Been worrying about mum. Been angry and frustrated at my grandmother, who by the way, is the cause of all the stress for mum and dad. [She won't even leave for a few months (to go to her other son's place) to allow my mum to recuperate! She is so selfish and narcissistic that when mum was going for the operation, she asks my sis if there will be time to go and exchange a sari for her! What planet does she live on?! And she wanted to celebrate Diwali despite mum being in the hospital and being scheduled for the bypass surgery the next day.] Been having some sleepless nights. Been wondering whether to go over or not. Been worried about how to go over given that I haven't applied for my Aussie passport yet. Been a bit stressed out with work stuff and doing some extra studying for an upcoming training.
So yeah, it's been a crazy few weeks.
And at the end of it all, all I want is for mum to get better and recover soon. So sending all the positive vibes and prayers down your end mum! Take care...and love you!

ReplyDeleteVery glad to hear it went well. I was shocked about the cause myself since your mom was always particular about diet and exercise. Sorry that she's so stressed. I get very annoyed at inconsiderate older relatives. I can't imagine our moms or us inconveniencing our kids in that manner..
ReplyDeleteYou take care and try not to worry too much.
Glad that your mom is now out of ICU and you'll soon speak to her..

ReplyDelete@ Smitha: Thanks for the good wishes...I'm hoping she's on her feet soon too...
ReplyDelete@ BM Thanks heaps Misty!! Really appreciate it...
@ Femba Girl: Tell me about it! No wonder most people were shocked. I must say, I don't like my chances in future... :P And yeah, you are right...our parents are probably not going to be even half as inconsiderate as our older relatives...
@ Scribbler: Thanks for the wishes and yes, grateful for the friends and neighbours! And yeah, the GM is driving me nuts...and I'm not even there!!! Spoke to mum on Sunday and she's still in pain but is now home. Just hoping she recovers well and soon...
ReplyDelete@ Titaxy: Thanks heaps T! I hope so too...
@ Magali: Thanks Mags! And you know...I have several times as well!!! And I think my sister has considered it more than me...maybe we could have a pact together for both our grandmas?? :P

ReplyDelete@ ~G: Thanks G! I hope so too...
@ E: Thanks E! I spoke to her on Sunday...she is now home and while it was good to talk to her, I could also sense the pain she was in...hoping she recovers well. Thanks again for the wishes...
@ Bikramjit: Thanks Bikram! And yes, I'm in the process of applying! :) Just have to take my passport photos and then put in the application! And as for grandmas...ugh...less said the better. For some reason though, tends to be on the paternal side...from what I know from friends as well...
ReplyDelete@ Comfy: Thanks heaps Comfy! Appreciate it...
@ Susan: Thanks heaps! Appreciate your wishes...
@ Smita: She's home now Smita and is in pain...hoping she recovers soon. It's even scarier when you're not there, huh? Sigh. And yeah, what can you do when you have selfish and narcissistic relatives??!! Sucks! Thanks for the wishes...
ReplyDelete@ Jessica: Thanks heaps Jessica! Appreciate your wishes...
@ Reema: Thanks Reema! I hope so too that it's a quick recovery. Hoping to go over some time next year to see her and dad...
Oh dear...I hope your mom is fine now. I totally understand abt the grandma...have a person like that...the self-absorption is so hurtful.
ReplyDeleteHugs!
@ Starry: Thanks...mum's home now and is recovering although still in pain. Still praying she recovers soon. And relatives such as the grandma are unbearable! Where do they get this level of narcissism from?? Sigh...
