"Your Local Tea Addict" Schizophrenic, knitter, reader and geek with a love of many things.
Work was fine. Usual working and money making. However, a lady that comes into the pharmacy a lot has been taken to the hospital. She's a diabetic and is old. She's all alone. She has no family. I had to go and see her. First at work, I blew up some balloons. Not remembering that latex is no longer allowed in hospitals, I had to get rid of four of them. Talk about timing though, two kids just came out of the door and I asked the mom if they could have balloons, she said yes. So I got rid of them. Aggie isn't doing well. I stayed as long as I could. She's in such pain. While I was there she threw up all over herself. I felt so bad. She has no family, so i left my numbers for them to call. While driving on my way home, they called. She had a seizure. She's okay now, but I"m worried. When I got home, I had mom just hold me for a bit, even though I'm strong when I'm with her (Aggie) I had to come home and cry. I feel powerless to help her. She's in such pain, and no family. What can I do for her?

i just wanted to say that what you are doing is noble. being here at school, it seems everyone is the same in that were all seeking the same goals: get a high paying job and find your dream partner. but it is rare for a person to put themselves out there as you have done--such selflessness. kathryn you are one of a kinda and like ive said before very beautiful.

I think it's so sweet of you to visit her and leave your numbers for the staff. The fact that you're visiting her at all, I'm sure she's very happy about. You're a very selfless person, tea. Take care of yourself. <3
