The dreaded phone call..

"Hello sir, this is the hospital calling.  Your mom was admitted last night...but she is fine." 

Can't say this is totally unexpected.  You just never hope the next phone call to be THE phone call.  Fortunately, it wasn't THE phone call.  But it was A phone call. 

I kinda knew everything was fine when the on-call nurse gave me her direct line.  But geez... one of these days... the ending will be different.  It's unavoidable... inevitable.  It's just a matter of time.... and how we'll react and deal with it.
