I am just confused right now.

we were playing outside with her, my dad, and the dog in the fresh snow.

everything was going fine.

I come up to the house, and My Dad is yelling at me that my mom is gravely ill and to wait for the ambulance because it is en route.

Worst off, I was filming when he said that.

Turns out she got an incredible pain in her abdomen, and was white and pale, and in overall bad shape.


We followed the Ambulance to the H. and although they didn't find anything immediately wrong with her other than that she was in pain, she is staying overnight for observation. we have a family history of heart problems on her side of the family so they want to rerun some test in the morning.


Really, I am just confused at this whole situation.

We had jsut come from dinner with friends and were playing with te dog outside in the snow. I was jsut coming back, filming everything I could with our DV camera jsut for kicks, and I ended up filming my dad coming to the front door and giving me the bad news.


I don't want you to psot or whatever. Just do what you do when someone asks for this kind of help.

Pray, or be optimistic or whatever.

could be a kidney stone, or gall stones.


gall stones will make you think your having a heart attack.

Hopefully it's just a bad case of heart burn. That happened to my mother once - she thought she was having a heart attack.

Hold on, you were playing with your mom, dad and dog in the snow, yet somehow you didn't find out she was feeling ill while she was right there? I dont get it.

But anyways, i hope she feels better.

Could be a lot of things. I hope she is alright. I'm sure you will let us know the outcome.

My dad thought he had appendicitis one night (he was pale, laying on the floor in great pain, and having trouble breathing), and it turned out he had an aneurysm in his abdominal aorta. Had I not arrived at my parents' place when I did that day (in time to call 911, etc), my dad would not have survived. Hopefully, whatever is going on with your mom is not so serious. Good luck! :)

Basically My Dad had come in a few minutes before us, and she was walking home ( I was playing with the dog far away) when she says the pain hit her. When she went inside my dad say her, and later told me that she was screaming with pain and really pale, so he called 911.

She seems to be okay.

I was at the hospital b ut my dad told me to leave so that I can come back and watch her in the morning and he can coem and sleep.


Thanks for the care:)

I hope she is alright.

I had a sudden pain in my abdomen a couple weeks ago and rushed to the ER. It was awful. Turned out to be a kidney stone. The symptoms sound the same and hopefully its just a kidney stone.
