well, that's a crappy way to start the weekend

Came home to a message on my cell phone from my brother - apparently the problems Mom's been having these last couple of weeks were serious enough that she finally decided it was time to go to the hospital. Good thing, too - she's apparently come down with pneumonia again, which affects her blood sugar, which aggravates her arrhythmia...and from there it gets into a nasty little vicious circle. Kind of late to fight the traffic and get over to the hospital before visiting hours are over today, but they start tomorrow morning at 1100. So I have that on my agenda for tomorrow.

Noted in passing:

Does anyone know if it's common practice to drown bulgogi in a thick, sweet soy-based sauce to the extent that you can't really taste the meat?
I think I would have liked the bulgogi sub I got at Dilly's yesterday better without that sauce.

Oh, crap. :\

Yeah. Get your ass to the hospital when you get a day off.
I'll give you directions and times.

My next day off is Monday. I'll see what I can do. :\

[wombat-socho.livejournal.com]

Okay.

Looks like I can be there tonight, 9, 9 thirty-ish. Can you let her know?

[wombat-socho.livejournal.com]

Not sure visiting hours run that late. If not, I'll let you know.

Your mom's in the hospital? Here's wishing her a swift recovery. I hope she feels better soon!

[wombat-socho.livejournal.com]

Thanks. Unfortunately, she's one of those people who won't go to the doctor unless she's feeling half dead already (normal appointments & tests excepted), so she'll probably be in there a while.

Hope your mother bounces back quickly...


Order the sub without sauce next time, or ask for the sauce on the side. They probably put the sauce on the sub because they feared that otherwise the sub would be too dry to eat.

That's possible, although with the standard lettuce/tomato/mayo package it should have been moist enough. I'll try it that way and let you know.
