Might be Away for a While

I had just wrapped up the tear your hair out phase of my latest project at the PCP and thinking of a small celebration when the cell phone started to ring.

Now I have my oldest Grandchild in the hospital having her gall bladder removed at the age of 12 and news of some serious household disorder in my Son’s family.

Afraid that I will be going silent until some of this gets resolved, sometimes the old Grandpa Bear has more important things to growl at.

Now if I can just find the number of that shyster Lawyer that went to school with me!

UPDATE:

Granddaughter released from ICU at zero dark thirty Thursday morning.  Release to home possible as soon as late afternoon.  She will be coming home minus her gall bladder of course, so some lifestyle changes will be in order.

Update The Second:

Granddaughter is at home and resting comfortably.  Physical Therapy is ongoing from a multiple small incision incursion and going well.  The Medical crisis is past tense, the other I cannot comment on as I am not privy to all the facts.

Suffice to say that Daughter has requested that I not come to the state as that would be a problem for her Brother.  I fear that she is correct.  Means to influence the situation are however in the works thanks to people on this site.

Grandpa Bear shall find a way!

Update the Third:

Granddaughter is doing wonderfully well and Son is set up in his new abode.  The emphasis now is something our readers may have heard before.  Logistics, Logistics followed by Logistics.  Cameras and telephones and wheels are in the works!

Keep the Grandpa Bear at a distance, no one wants to see the inner Dog released!

Update the Fourth:

All is now in place as well as can be expected!  Granddaughter is well and healing rapidly (Physical Therapy excepted, who does not gripe about that) and living conditions have been settled.

I have to scrounge a computer for the Son (ie, put the parts together and ship) and the burn phone for Granddaughter is on the way.  Maybe tomorrow the muse might return and I can do some writing.

My creative skills tend to focus narrowly in times like this and writing was not the point of focus!
