I need an outside perspective and thought maybe u guys can help me out. I just got an email from my sis who sent it to my work email. Luckily I set work email to be forwarded to my pager so I got her msg immediately. In this email, she informed me that our mom has been in hospital!. She said the reason they didn't tell me earlier was because they thought shed be in 1 nite only but she ended up staying longer. She didn't say how long mom has been there but she s gettin better. Apparently she has pnemonia AGAINhkeeps gettin it every couple weeks for a couple months no matter what medience drs gives her. Now they realized her hernia/reflex (Didn't know she had a hernia either!) might be affecting her road to recovery with pnemonia so they're doing something about thay.
My question is- am I being childish about this? I mean this has happened before- sometimes they'd say something like "Oh last month during my surgery.." And I'd say "WHAT SURGERY?K and they'd say they didn't tell me cuz I can't do anything to help since I live so far away or that it was no biggie.
What's your advice/iput on this??? Am I being bratty if I email to all family members and explain NICELY AGAIN that I really want to be kept informed in a TIMELY manner even if I can't be there in person??
