my father is in the hospital. my father is in the hospital. chest pains. now i am thinking about this, though probably not too clearly. today is not the day for thinking clearly. he must be in erlanger since mom mentioned trevor, my uncle that works at erlanger. they were in the emergency room all night last night, and now he is in admitting. he's fine, momma says. she didn't call me because she didn't want me to worry. but worry i suppose i will. i think she is a bit worried too. they suspect the tissue around his heart is inflammed. they gave him some antinflammatories last night and he's feeling better. mom said he was scared last night, and now he just wants to go home. he has one last test, an echo, which will test to see if there is fluid around his heart. that could cause more problems. it may even be the reason the tissue is inflammed. this scares me quite a bit. more so than that. i mean he is quite young. he is only 41. i have such a head ache. i am about to walk to the coke machine at the end of our block. it'll give me some fresh air. serendipity would enjoy the walk too. i have to get this out of my mind. just for now. i have celly if anyone wants to talk to me.
