Hurry up and wait
Well, after flying my Mom out here and making all of the arrangements for Allan to have this surgery, we fly out to Seattle get to the hospital at 0630 on the day of surgery, get him stripped down into his hospital gown and into the OR gurney only to have them CANCEL HIS SURGERY! Seems he had a bit of rattling in his right lung, a left over from the bronchitis he had a few weeks ago, and the anesthesiologist refused to put him under until his lungs are clear. A wonderful precaution as not to risk a lung collapsing during surgery and him having to be on a venilator until well again...however the pisser is..the fucking flight surgeon here in Kodiak cleared him for surgery. Said his bronchitis was gone and he was good to go. Well thanks to that misdiagnosis I am out 800 dollars for my Mom's ticket and now we have to go thru it all over again May 10th. That's right boys and girls, the schwannoma removal has been rescheduled for May 10th. I have no idea if I will be able to go, a thought that just makes me sick to my stomach. But what can I do? Who do I get to watch the boys?
OMG....stress....it's no wonder I've recently started taking Xanax for anxiety.

Well that really sucks Star, all the way around! I imagine Dupe just wants to get this shit over with. I guess there is no way of getting your money back either. Is Dupe still going to work, or is he at home? Anyway, tell Dupe hi for me.
All is well here. I got back to NY this past Sunday, and I'm in the process of finding a place to live. I have to go see an apartment today (although I already saw the neighborhood and wasn't impressed at all), but this area has a good renters market, so something will pop up before too long. The weather is nice enough too, which helps. At least it's above 40 and not snowing.
I'll talk with you later, Alex
