T&P Needed for FIL
Okay girls, this isn't really baby related, but it's needed. We found out a couple months ago that FIL has cancer. He is going in for surgery in about 20 minutes to remove lymph nodes and tumor. I don't have any time left off work this year, so I can't be at the hospital, but DH is there with MIL. I am so ansy I can't sit still, I feel like my skin is crawling. I'm trying not to stress out but it's not easy. I know I couldn't do anything if I were there, but just to be there for him. MIL's biggest fear is that he won't be here in April when our precious LO arrives. My father isn't a part of my life, so he will be the only grandpa LO will know...and here come the tears! Oh my!!!
T&P for a successful surgery...we couldn't live without him! TIA!!!

Re: T&P Needed for FIL
I'm so sorry for what you and DH are going through right now. I know the worry and not being able to be there are hard for you. Try to stay positive - is he at Barnes Jewish in STL? We have some dear friends that have received their treatment there, so I'm sure he is receiving the best care too.
T&Ps for you today. Please let us know how things are going!
Love and hugs from the other Katie in Missouri!
Thank you girls so much for all the t&p. I posted a quick update...surgery took 6 hours but went well, he is in recovery and we got to see him for a few minutes. Got a smile, thumbs up and I love you!
