I have a lot of damn gall. Apparently.

[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 481006, member: 3444"] Thanks everyone! I have to laugh at my relatives. My mom called her brothers yesterday to tell them about my probable surgery and one of them immediately offered to host Thanksgiving even though I'd already planned on doing that. And when I told her today at lunch that I'd rather he host Christmas since that's when I'll likely be recovering, she went home and called him about it but his wife had already gone out and bought all the groceries for the meal! Ugh. So mom volunteers to host Christmas at HER house. This is not what I wanted to have happen. Last year my uncle hosted Thanksgiving because my dad had just passed away in August, and my mom took on Christmas because I was overwhelmed with difficult child 1's health issues that were leading him toward a surgical procedure. I felt it was my turn this year to give them all a break! Besides, I need an excuse to clean my house or it just never seems to get done! Anyway, looks like I'm off the hook for both holidays now. Got my consult appointment scheduled for 11/30 and the nurse said the surgeon is only scheduled out a week or two typically, and she felt is was pretty likely I could get this taken care of before the end of the year, so I'm happy about that. I'll keep you posted! [/QUOTE]
