T&P Update

[kcd0531]

My parents are in Colorado visiting my older brother and while there got the news that my mom is a donor match for my dad. They have to do some more testing when they return home and the whole reality of this is setting in a lot faster than anyone anticipated. This is incredibly exciting and nerve-wracking all in a big mixed bag of emotions.

Nervous mainly because they would both need to be out of work for approx. 4-6 weeks and who would give them the care they need while recovering? I'll do what I can but I do work full-time and have 2 kids. My sister would be able to help out the most; but she is pregnant and due at the beginning of February, and and and… it just goes on.

Between the holidays and my sister's due date rapidly approaching they (mostly my mom) are stressing over the details. My mom is a major Type-A planner and personality so I know this has got to be driving her crazy. My dad is a lot more laid back but I cannot imagine how he must be feeling. This is a pretty big deal.

So, ladies, please keep those T&Ps coming - they're working and now they just need assurance that everything is going to be fine.

Thank you!!
