Now you'll just have to worry all of the time that maybe something is happening and you just haven't found out about it yet! Jeez Louise is right! I'm glad your mom's okay!
On the other hand, you have my dad...a few months after my mom had open heart surgery, my dad came home from work and my mom was on the couch but he couldn't tell if she was sleeping or dead! He tried saying her name but she wasn't responding. So instead of just checking, he called me and asked me to come over and check! I had to ask him to repeat himself - surely he was not asking me to do what it sounded like! But sure enough, I walked down to their house and checked. He said he was too scared to do it himself in case she was dead.
Then again, when she had the heart attack, it happened at night. My dad came home from the hospital early in the AM. We would've preferred that he called us as soon as it happened, or even when he came home. Instead, he wrote us a note telling us, and tucked it inside of our newspaper! So Mike made his breakfast and coffee, sat down to read the paper one Saturday morning and started yelling for me to come downstairs quickly (I was 39 weeks pregnant!)!
