The joy of a new sibling juxtaposed and forever blighted by the fact they're a Yorkshireman... ๐
'Your dad's just had a pulmonary oedema and has been rushed to hospital...'
Followed a couple of weeks later by:
'The doctor thinks mum has had a minor stroke, can you come and take her to A&E for a scan?'
(Mum seems to have recovered, dad had to have heart bypass surgery and is still recovering).
It was a rough couple of months though.

New keyboard please!! ๐
Moved to Cornwall with the future MrsCat then got a call from my Dad to say Mum had been rushed into hospital (in Rotherham) with multiple bleeds into her brain and suspected sub-arachoid haemorrhage and unlikely to live.
20 years later and the dotty old bat is still with us.
This lad I know had a party. His Dad came back and said "who's been shagging in your bed because it won't be you" whilst holding up a used condom!
update - all is OK, they had the Telegraph

Mum - You're just like your father
Brother - Is that why I get up at 4 in the morning and leave botles of milk on people's doorsteps?
"what I suggest you do"
Now my dads in a care home with Alzheimer's disease I realise that most of the time he was right, but at the time it used to drive me up the wall.
