days dont get much worst than this


My worst day is one I never want to relive.

Before I start off on the retelling of my worst day, I would like to fill the reader in on a few facts about my life. My family has always been really close, but my mom and I are by far the closest! She’s my whole, I tell her everything, is my best friend.
My worst day took place 3 years ago Feb 10th, my mom and I were sitting in the living with room, finishing the planning on my birthday party, which was the next day February 11th. I looked up at my mom and all the sudden her speech wasn’t sounding right, it started to come up all slurred and uneasy. She tried to get up and she wasn’t able to. My mom fell back into the chair in our living room, unable to talk clearly or move. An uneasy feeling set over my stomach and I immentaitley ran to get my dad who was down stair on the exercise bike.
“ Dad, Something’s Wrong with Mom!” I screamed. At first he looked at me with disbelieve but than I gave him a look of urgency, and he realized I was serious. We both sprinted back up the steps, my dad told me that he need my help to get mom in the car to take her to the ER. At the point my mom could barely walk, carrying her was struggle not only physically but emotionally. Upon arrival at the hospital my dad gave me the keys and I had me park the car. I sat in the parking lot crying, I just couldn’t stop because I knew my mom was sick. She had a stroke, Within the weeks to follow my mom had 2 more strokes and spent a total of 8 weeks in Milwaukee Hospital before surprising everyone, being the complete miracle she is and pulling through. My mom now does the ads for the hospital that saved her life.
