Worried.
I don’t know if I mentioned this elsewhere, but my mother was scheduled for surgery this afternoon. We took her to the hospital at 12:30pm, and left about an hour later. As I write this, it is 7:00pm, and we still haven’t heard anything back.
I really wanted to be there when she woke up, but the staff won’t allow you in until the patient is ready to go, which sucks. It’s scary waking up from a general anaesthetic by yourself, and I’m going out of my mind without news.
Also, I have about a million pieces of homework to complete. As I’m sure you can guess, progress on work is going along fantastically, what with the worry and all. This post, really, is just to vent a little bit. And to ask a small favour.
Send good thoughts my Mum’s way, please.

Sending good thoughts to both you, and your Mum.
Hopefully everything will go smoothly, though you must be going out of your mind. =(
*hugs*

Thank you, everyone.
The surgery went well with only minor complications, and Mum seems to be improving quickly. I’m sure the morphine they have her on is helping, too. ;)

I’ve just read your latest comment & I’m so happy she’s all ok.
