Doctor Visit

Today I had a very busy day I stayed up all last night to finish homework for my classes to finish the semester up. I went to my class and then did some cleaning. I layed down for about a half hour and woke up to my alarm clock because I had to get ready to take my mom to her doctor appointment. We had to be there by 1:30.
She had to go to the hospital in Mequon to have more fluid drained from her lungs, an X-ray, and a follow up appointment. The appointments filled up the whole day, so we were there which seemed like forever. She started off with checking herself in and doing some paper work. After she was done with that she went in to get the fluid drained from her lungs and have her X-ray taken. She was very nervous about getting the fluid drained from her lungs again, but she said she felt much better when it was done.
By the time she was done with all that it was still very early and her next appointment wasn't until five. We decided to go to Charcoal Grill about ten minutes down the street in Grafton. We ate some delicious food there and headed back to the hospital for her follow-up appointment. We sat in the waiting room which felt like a lifetime. By the time she went in a half hour had passed. I decided to walk around the hospital while I was waiting. She was in there for about an hour. She was relieved when she was done, so we could go home.
She goes back next week. I just hope that the doctors can find out what keeps causing the problems she has. So far they are not finding any answers. I wish my mom could just be back to her normal self. Although, we were at the hospital most of the day I enjoyed my time I spent with her today.
