Mom has been in the hospital for a week now. They removed her gallbladder and several gallstones. When I say gallstones, I don’t mean little pea sized ones that normal people get. This thing was the size of a tennis ball. Really, I’m not kidding. My husband asked if they named it.

The past week hasn’t been easy. I missed work because of wanting to be ready for Mom and Dad, and because I hurt my hip again and have been limping around like some old lady. I’ve been working on getting that fixed. My boss totally rocks, all he asked was that I keep him informed. There was no third degree.

Daecon was amazing, as always. He was there for me and reminded me when I was borrowing trouble. My mother-in-law kept the kids when I couldn’t take them with me. My friends gave me moral support. My Aunts and Uncles gave me support and suggestions for things to do to help Mom get the care she needed.

Last night my friends came over and cooked us dinner and cleaned up the kitchen. Now I’m alone in a house and missing daecon very badly. He will be home soon, though.

I love my friends and my family. I am a very, very lucky woman.
