[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First, they are hours away. Second, they may have not actually truly understood the full ramifications of her illness. Third, have they ever been sick? Did they share this with you or are they likely to hide the truth so as to not burden you with the potential devastation they have faced? Would you rush to their side if they were in ICU? Fourth, is it that you are facing for the first time a potential loss? They may have been through many and know not to panic. Even better, they may fear that reacting will magnify the fear. I've seen people die alone in hospitals while the family shows up later hysterical. Some handle the thought of death very differently then others. Fifth, are you just struggling because you have to deal with two small kids? [/quote] WTF. Nice way to blame the victim. Moron. [/quote]
