SPECIAL REQUEST: Please keep my grandma in your thoughts. Her nurses have told my mom that it is a matter of a day or two now. She is on morphine every 4 hours and hasn't talked to anyone for two days. My mom or my aunts take turns holding her hand basically 24/7.

I keep waiting for the call, but now I don't want it because we are going to be there on Thursday. It was this weekend that my grandma said she would try to hang on til but she couldn't promise it.

Clearly they've never watched National Geographic...

kgore - 2013-04-24 1:44 PM I just got updated by my mom--dad's surgery is supposed to be tomorrow morning...Apparently he ordered that I continue studying and finishing my papers and not to worry about him...obviously, his sense of humor isn't hurt. okay, back to my paper now.

I love that you live in a place called Rio Rancho.

I love that I play Dicewith Buddies with ya!

amd723 - 2013-04-23 5:57 PM This makes me sad, I hope she hangs on until you get there. I will keep her and your family in my thoughts.

Praying for a miracle she hangs on for you to see her or if not, her suffering is minimal.  Thoughts are with you and your family, it's always hard letting go of anyone.

Thoughts and prayers for you! 

kgore - 2013-04-23 6:02 PM I received an email this morning--my dad had yet another heart attack--still mild, but he is going in for surgery to possibly install * something* (a stint???)---anyway, once again, I, well he actually, am in need of good thoughts. Thanks.

'Kay, got one paper done (the icky one about Nietzsche--yuck--don't like 'im), and halfway through the other(not nearly as bad--5 pages in 3 to go...and its more of a book report)...I'm stopping for the night.

Thanks everyone for your kind wishes. I know that Dad's surgery is a common one, and that people are getting it done all the time with no issues--nonetheless, I can't shake the feeling of this being an ongoing issue that is not ending well (THAT WAS VERY HARD TO TYPE! )--as I have seen this situation in two uncles, one grandfather, and one friend...only difference is that none of them were caught this early--none of them are around anymore. Oh crap, I am kinda breaking down now...That's enough from me, I'm gonna try and go focus on something--anything--I can't stay with this topic now.

Good night all. and thanks again.

Or had kids? My boobs are too big to not wear a bra.  Of course, most women don't wear the proper size bra.  I was reading this Reddit thread the other day on getting the proper sized bra and it is really fascinating!  Apparently I should actually be wearing a 34H! I don't even know where to go to find that size.
