Keep Me in Your Thoughts, Please

Hello all. It has been a rough couple of days in Rambling Shan Land.

Last night my mom told me that my dad was in the hospital. He had been feeling poorly for some time and finally went to the hospital. They ran some tests and admitted him, saying he had diverticulitis. He was supposed to be in for 24 hours and go home. I found out this morning that they wanted to keep him for another day to run more tests. When I just talked to my mom, she said now they are thinking of keeping him through the weekend. I don't know why...they say it's for more tests.

Then, as I talked to Mom, she also informed my that my dad's dad died this morning. He had been in a nursing home for over a year and it is a blessing, but I worry that my dad feels guilty that he didn't get to visit him yesterday (he always saw him on Wednesdays). So, it is all crazy here. My grandpa and I weren't actually close, but he's family, so it's still hard.

I am still going to yoga tonight (something to distract me for the next couple of hours) and TJ is in Florida until Saturday, so I am feeling a bit out of sorts. I may not post for awhile (or maybe I will--it will help with the distraction).

Thanks, fellow bloggers.
