So I heard Dad say "Karen has a Social Security hearing on the sixth of November and she should be ready to leave for Phoenix SOON after that. We just want her out of here." Therefore I purchased a REFUNDABLE airline ticket for the return trip to lincoln for the 15 of Nov. and let Dad know I was planning on leaving Nov. 12.
I called Dad to see if things were falling into place. He informed me that (A) She wouldn't be ready to go untill getting her disability check from Social Security and (B) She had a seizure the night before I called and was in at Nebraska Medical Center which was where they put "those people". Evidently she was discovered rearranging furniture because of all the children in the house. When asked where the kids were she said in the back bedroom which was of course empty. Is that a seizure or a day in the life of grandma Fischer?
I had visions of driving in the middle of New Mexico, 84 mile from the nearest hospital, and she wigs out grabbing the steering wheel and screaming "MY BABIES!" Dad said she may never be well enough to leave Omaha and that I should cancel the plane reservation. I am considering going a step further and cancelling my phone service.
