Thanks for all your kind thoughts for my husband. He was admitted yesterday after all and we are all in a frenzy of worried activity. Luckily, my saintly sister-in-law consented to drive down from Philadelphia (a nearly five hour drive through D.C. traffic) to help out with the kids. For this act, if for nothing else, she should be given every Pulitzer and Nobel prize available.


I am exhausted and scared, he is exhausted and hurting. But the care is excellent (save for one spectacularly bitchy nurse) and he is resting - which is needed above all. With luck and good vitals, he'll be coming home in a day or so. Any prayers you wish to offer up to the diety of your choice, candles you wish to burn or herbs you wish to dry and crumble will be greatly appreciated.


Back in a few.
