I admit that I am sending out thank you's and much love to those of you who are remembering my family at this time. I admit that the next 12-24 hours is a very critical time for my sister who is in ICU. My other sister went to see her and her kids (who are my age and slightly older). So much going on... No source for the internal bleeding has been found yet, but they have managed to re-hydrate her, and her kidneys are functioning again. She still has a lot of machines keeping her body going so they can continue to run tests, etc. A medically induced coma is about what it is taking in order to keep her in a state where they can do all the tests that need to be done. I admit that my sister told me to be on "standby" tomorrow if things do not go well and another family member is needed to help in making the decision of what to do with our oldest sister's continuation or cessation of medical care. I admit that I am praying that I am not needed for such a decision, but I hope that I will be of some help, especially since she does not have a Will or an Advanced Directive, and estate law is what I do. I admit that my Dad seems to be fairing well... as well as can be expected. We are all praying. It's all we can do. I admit that I needed to take a break from all this stuff tonight, and I spent a few hours by myself, looking at wedding stuff in the stores... just milling about, trying to think of something more pleasant. I admit that I had a nice time... especially when I was texting Geoff about his opinion on various "girlie stuff." I admit that my favorite 'caveman' response from him today was: "Ummm... Ok, honestly? I'm a guy. As long as you're happy with it and I get laid that night, it's all good. :P " I admit that I LMAO and didn't care who thought I was insane at doing so... I admit that I love our silliness... It's a huge change of pace from what I'm used to.
