It's gotten worse...

My roomie M went back into the hospital on Friday with blood in her stool. She's on anticoagulants because of her heart condition. Latest word is that she's bleeding into her abdomen, bleeding into her colon, and now has blood in her urine. They can't take her off of the anticoagulants because of the heart problems (she's already had 1 full blown heart attack, and 2 major surgeries on her heart.) Can you say *hosed*?

We knew that after the heart surgeries and heart attack she was living on borrowed time - what with stents and all. Now it looks like someone has turned it over to a collection agency.

Mind you, this will not affect our finances in any way - she hasn't come up with her portion of the rent in nearly ten years. Between her medications and her thoroughly conditioned (by her psycho mother) financial irresponsibility (Ms fast food because she can't stand up long enough to cook...) she has never put rent first.

Now I doubt she'll ever learn.

What is really frightening? M is two years younger than I am. She's just never been as healthy as I am.
