Today my best friend's daughter had to go to the emergency room because of an asthma attack. It was serious enough that she had to be taken by EMS. My friend hadn't been able to reach her husband so I went with her. Finally, he got home from work and she filled him in on the situation. He said it sucked but he couldn't come to the hospital because hospitals freak him out.
So about 3 hours later, I had to go pick up my own kids, and on the way I stopped at my best friend's house to tell her husband he needed to go over to the hospital because they were keeping his daughter overnight and his wife needed to be able to leave and get something to eat. I stayed and hassled him until he got in his truck to go.
I just can't understand it...I know some people are afraid of hospitals, but his little girl was gasping and wheezing and her lips were turning blue,,, why wouldn't he rush over to be with her? Is it possible to be that scared of hospitals, that you won't go see your own kid
