The Dreaded 2am call

on: Apr/18/05 and its been viewed 876 times

Mom called about 30 minutes ago.

Dad had a heart attack and was admitted to Froedert Hosp. in Milwaukee.

I’m leaving now, even though she told me not to come down until I wake up in the morning.

Like I could sleep.

I never listened to my mother, anyways.

I won’t be around today, if you’re looking for me. For hosting, if you submit a trouble ticket - we’ll find it a bit later in the day when Chris checks in. For design, please be patient.

Thanks.

    I hope everything works out well Lisa - blogging is probably a long way from the top of your list of things to do… but as time, family, and circumstance permit keep us posted.
