Uncle #1 (doctor...actually, all the uncles on my maternal side are doctors...) texted me last night. They think it's Transient Global Amnesia. Meaning it should be temporary, and it's not localised to any one thing.

Anyway, late last night she started remembering things - the party she's having, and other bits and pieces. So it's probably not permanent.

Here's hoping and praying!

Am debating going and visiting her in hospital, or waiting until she gets home. Maybe decide later on today once they determine if she's going to stay another night or come home. The stepdad will need help with her, especially if her memory's not 100%.

Not the weekend I planned to have, but when is it ever?

Thanks again for the well-wishes and stuff, guys.

3:30pm: They're discharging her. I'm guessing that means her memory's (mostly) back. Stepdad seems to think she's okay. There'll be a few more tests, but it looks like we're out of the woods. At least for the moment.

I'm going around to cook dinner now. Stepdad cancelled the party on Monday and has arranged for her to get the week on leave. (Which she'll just spend gardening. But that's relaxing, too!) Everyone's going to be keeping a careful eye on her for the next few days, though!

8:45pm: She's okay. Her memory's back up to the point at which we think she had the brain blip. Then she doesn't remember anything until late last night when she started recalling stuff. Had dinner at their house tonight. Cue lots of jokes about remembering, etc. Seems okay and we're very grateful.

Thanks for the support, guys.
