I just got a phone call from my mother, my brother is in the hospital. Apparently he has some kind of blood condition where he has too much protein in his blood. They don't know what is causing this but if they don't take care of it his organs will start to fail. The only way they can get rid of the protein is to take all of his blood out and cleanse it. My friend is instructing me that they do this through some kind of machine. The whole thought is freaking me out and I am so worried that something will happen to my only brother. My mom says he should be okay but I can tell by the sound of her voice she is not so convinced of this herself. I truely believe that when it rains it pours. The only thing that keeps going through my mind right now is FUCK! I can't even go out to see him till Saturday night because work won't let me go anywhere. I hate it when my family is hurt or sick they have always been so much of what holds me up.
