A difficult day.

Tweet

I cleaned up the house with Leticia, we ate lunch and then went to the supermarket to buy a couple of things for tea time with my friends. Just as I opened the door, the phone rang. It was Claudia. She was very agitated and told me that I must take a taxi immediatly to go and babysit my grandchildren as she had to take Rafael in a hurry to the hospital. I told her that I had my friends over, my mind in a blurr. She told me I must do as she said and that she take me back home later on. I did not understand anything. So I called my friends and told them that I had to leave for Claudia´s house, that there seemed to be a medical emergency. We decided that I´d call when I returned. When I was at Claudia´s, she called and told me what had happened. Rafael was pruning some roses and he had "pruned" one of his index fingers. He required quite a complicated surgery. It wasn´t just a couple of stitches as I first thought. Claudia brought me home and I had a nice but very late tea. I had bought sweet rolls, 2 different types of cheese and some ham. I am very sorry for my son in law. He had no pain when he came back from the hospital, but tonight the pain will be unbearable.
