Babies on the Brain

My poor neighbor

My doorbell rang at 2 am this morning, and I opened it to find her hunched over and in tears. Her husband was rushing her to the ER and they wanted to know if I could stay in the house in case their 3 year old woke up-of course I didn't hesitate. But as soon as I walked in the door she started cleaning up the house, trying to make me snacks, wanted to give me a quick tutorial on thier entertainment system in case I wanted to watch tv, fluffing the sofa pillows etc.Indifferent um, no, get yourself to the hospital woman!  Then on the way to the hospital they kept calling and asking what I wanted in return for helping them out, did I want any food, etc.

Turns out she had a raging UTI that had infected her bladder pretty bad, but she's fine now. I have never seen someone be that polite, I've had a pretty bad UTI, and holy hell I would have just been crying and screaming words through clenched teeth.

  • Oh no! :(

    Sadly I can picture myself doing that. I was cleaning up my house before we left for the hospital before I had Logan because I knew my parents were going to come get our dogs and I didn't want it to be filthy.

  • Oh no Sad Poor woman. I've had a couple really bad UTI's like that in the past. I definitely see myself giving a thank you gift but I don't know if I would be thinking too clearly to be very polite while I was in pain.
