family antics
May. 23rd, 2010 10:21 pmI am posting from the emergency room! Fun! [/sarcasm]
Papa took a bad fall today. He was trying to take off his pants, of all things, and lost his balance. We've only told him a few million times to sit down instead of bend over. X.x IF ANYONE WONDERS WHERE I GET IT, NOW YOU KNOW.
We had a fun time getting him up and into a wheelchair to get him outside, but there was just no way in hell that he was getting in my car. So, ambulance. Ambulance that was 5 miles away and yet managed to take 40 minutes to arrive. They got lost, OI. I know we live in the middle of nowhere, but really people.
According to various people, he's probably broken his hip. Hopefully it's not too bad. They're also doing a CAT right now, in case he hurt his head in the fall. Then they'll take him for the X-rays. So all I can do is wait and try to be useful. (And now you know how I've found time to type all this out with my thumbs. YAY FOR MY CELLPHONE!)
Actually, there was a fun part. I got to follow the ambulance. In the process, I found out my car can go over 100MPH. That was very much fun, though I might have appreciated it more if I hadn't been worried sick. I feel bad for all the drivers I cursed out. Do not get between me and the ambulance that has my grandpa.
