Hold my hand, please - I'm in Emergency with Mum ...

(NC, as this might be outing)

See title ... and it looks as though this might be her 2nd, life-threatening hypertensive crisis in as many years.

I can't reach my fucking family, can't reach any of my close friends. Got my 2nd COVID shot early this morning and I think I've a temperature myself.

I know I've got to really hold it together and be a fucking adult here, but ... shit, I'm panicked and exhausted and alone and I really want my mum!

Please hand hold me for a bit until someone IRL turns up!

Oh that's good news.

Bless you - you've had an afternoon of it. Great news you are taking mum home. I hope she continues to recover. (There is nothing wrong with being the dependable one. I think it's a great quality and I look for it in friends.)

Fabulous news! Let's hope this works as a warning to your mum and your sister

Great news - take care x
