I can't believe I'm still awake. It is 12:15am. My alarm is set for 5am. It's my nerves. Ok, and the medium Dunkin Donuts coffee. I had that at 7:30pm and nursed it until 5 minutes ago. I am nervous because my sister is going to get another stent put in her kidney/bladder region tomorrow morning at 8am. She is getting full anesthesia. I worry because this is the fourth time in less than 6 months that they are doing this to her. He is also doing a test to see if she now has a bladder blockage instead because he believes he cleared and fixed the kidney blockage problem. Why he doesn't just do the test first to see if is indeed a blockage is beyond my understanding. I suppose that is why I don't have M.D. after my name. I just want him to do right by her. I guess I really am upset too that I cannot be with her. It is being done in an off-site surgical center and she can only bring one person and naturally her husband is the choice. Her husband has my cell & work numbers in case of anything. She told me that she will call me when she gets home, probably in the mid-afternoon.
I thought I would occupy my time by doing some work for my class. I actually got alot accomplished. I needed something to take my mind off of it. I crammed two lessons in and found the answers to a 10 page exam. I thought that was going to take me forever but only took me 3 hours. Thank you God!
Well, I am going to go off to sleep now or shall I say go lay down now. Hopefully I will be able to sleep some since I don't want to be a zombie when I drive my long commute. I will check in again later in the day tomorrow and give an update. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers for my sister. She and I both appreciate them more than you can ever know.

I hope you were finally able to get some sleep! I'm dragging this morning cause a certain furry boy was extra cuddly all night long. He couldn't lay on top of my head like he usually does, he had to lay in my arms, and he kept touching my face with his little paws. Awww.
I'll be thinking of you and your sister today and sending prayers your way.
Be safe.
Sue - Yes, I finally think I fell asleep a little after 1am. I woke up a couple of times then was up for good at 4:30am. I just laid there though until the alarm went off. I figured at least I was still getting rest.
Awwwww, Redford was being all lovey with you. How cute!!! That is just so sweet how you said he was touching your face with his paws. To want to be held like that & touch you like that means he has total trust in you. Too sweet.
Thank you SO much for the thoughts and prayers. We both so appreciate them. By the way on Wednesday her chocolate lab Chester is getting that lump on his leg removed. My sister schedules everything around her surgery! The dog's surgery I can understand but yesterday going those doors was crazy. I was upset because I didn't want her to over-exert herself before her surgery today. Ugh!!!
Well my friend, I wish you a wonderful day and a safe commute. Thank you again for your concern. You are a sweetheart. I'll keep you posted.
