well, it did all work out. the surgery went very well and the surgeon was able to remove the entire tumor. recovery is progressing and my little guy may be able to come home tonight. yay! my little girl had a special breakfast out with her daddy this morning to get a little quality time by herself. she's still very upset about not being allowed to sleep at the hospital. and the dog spent four days living in my car. she'll be the most happy of all when we all go home! she only chewed up her leash and my husband's xm radio - insert lots of swearing by husband.

i am so stressed out. my little boy is having surgery tommorow and i can't get everything else to fall into place. i don't have anyone to watch my dog and she will chew the entire house down if she's left alone. the doctor changed us to a hospital way across town and the drive is going to be really expensive with two cars going back and forth every day for a week. my little daughter is getting lost in the shuffle. she wants to be with us, but isn't allowed to sleep at the hospital. my cat can stay alone, but she'll be really mad and pee everywhere.

but it will all be fine. the dog will simply come with me and stay in the car. the gas will go on a credit card. the daughter will stay with a friend and cry a lot. and the cat will pee everywhere and i'll eventually clean it all up. yep, it'll all be fine. is it too late to start drinking?
