i've just been out since about half past eight this evening, and i returned home to a note from my dad saying he'd taken my mum to the local hospital and not to worry. she's been having pains, rather servere ones in her stomach and kidney areas (according to my dad whose best subject isn't biology) since about 9pm.

my dad came back about 40 minutes ago to tell me that she's been taken in an ambulance to the hospital that's much further away for immediate attention and that they've had to drug her up rather a lot because of the pain :frown:

i had to pack her a rather large bag of stuff too.

i'm a bit concerned because he said not to worry, yet the doctors seem to be doing just that. ahh! panic! do you think i should drive over to the hospital where she is, despite having been told by my dad that it's not "worth it"?!

Don't know what you should be doing, but I think you certainly shouldn't be rushing to TSR to post on here as soon as anything happens in your life. Go help your dad or see your mum instead, I'm sure they need you more.

I think that you should try and contact your dad, if you haven't already, find out what's going on, tell him you want to come down. If you can't get hold of him i think that you should stay put...although i know if it was me in your situation i would go. However, i don't think it's going to be anything too serious. It may just be her appendix, which they can sort out just fine. Don't worry!

i think because she's gone straight there i might be allowed to go too. i'm not allowed to stay over though, only one family member.

If your mum is getting treatment and is being given stuff for the pain, then she probably isn't capable of talking to you yet, so no point in going atm.
Just go see her when your dad goes next/tomorrow?

Kudos.

i'm not "rushing to tsr" to talk about my problems, you make it sound like i want to advertise the fact that my mother has suddenly become even more ill than before..

she already has health issues which is why i'm a bit worried really but my dad has told me NOT to come up so that i can go when he needs to come home, if that makes sense. i just feel really guilty sitting here.

I wouldn't go in that case. You'll only be told to leave pretty soonish i'd imagine. Really, don't worry. Your dad will phone you if anything happens that you need to know about.

Look, give the girl a break!!! ALL she wants is some ADVICE. And what does TSR give, but ADVICE. And when your on your own, this is a good place to come to get an unbiased view on things, and help calm you. Leave her alone yeah

Let the doctors contact you. I know it must be hard and you're in anticipation, but the worse thing you can do right now is stress the doctors out by asking them non-stop questions.

I didn't criticise, I advised you (read my second sentence). I also think it's weird that many posts at TSR start with "I just ...". It's as if people rush onto TSR to let us know about the tiniest thing happening in their lives. It's especially funny if it's something like "I just lost my virginity...". I didn't mean to criticise you; your case is different, but I stand by what I said -- your parents need you more than you need to be on TSR, I think.

well i did say that my dad told me not to come, or that it wasn't worth it. he wants me to stay here and now i don't know if i should go against his word or just do what he wants and stay here. this is my dilemma basically.

i'm at home, on my own, i have no siblings and therefore nobody to talk to. talking to somebody on the internet is the closest thing i have to a conversation right now. before someone says it, i HAVE tried to ring friends but their phones are all switched off!

sorry, i didn't mean to almost bite your head off. as i'm sure you understand, i'm a little concerned atm.
