Nothing Working Anymore
So: fun week. We had the funeral for Mom a couple of days ago: a lot of people showed up, including a lot of the O’Briens I didn’t expect to see. It was lovely talking to Uncle Walter again, and my cousin Julie. Whitney of course was there with her kids, but we even had several Yeager folks including Jerry and Cathy. So, that was as nice as it could possibly have been. We buried her ashes along with the ashes of her cat Sassy.
Then on Monday I had to go to the hospital with violent stomach pain. Turns out something had swollen my intestines until they closed up completely. A round of antibiotics meant I only spent a couple nights there, and I’m doing much better; but even with insurance, our financial situation is such that I am pretty worried about paying off these bills. And I had such a nice credit rating this time last year.
