Meeting out Cousin Sarah and Friend Tom at Hooligan's this pm...reminded me of my previous life on the good ol' east side--yummy Bloody Mary's and way too late of nights. (Watched M.U. get killed, but it was still fun). Covered a range of topics from standard bar fare to vastly inappropriate. Shenanigans. I may or may not be typing slightly buzzed...
Worst Part of Day-
Will-O had his last surgical procedure from the car accident this morning. He had the temporary hardware removed from his knee cap fracture and had long-term stuff put in (technically speaking). He went in at 5am and I picked him up close to 1pm. An outpatient procedure as they say. He was chipper and jolly all afternoon. We were both glad to be done with the surgeries from his accident!! Hurrah. He was not in pain--it was miraculous. I made lunch, he ate heartily; he made dinner for the whole fam and we all ate to our hearts' content. I put Liam down at 7pm and he demanded "you go out--we're fine." I left at 7:30pm and all family members were nestled in their beds.
I received a call from Billy near midnight saying he was in a ton of pain and the meds weren't helping. He said to hurry home because he needed help. I felt terrible to be in a loud bar chatting about silly things like porn and "motor boats". I rushed home to find him really in bad shape. I gave him medicine and an ice pack and water and massaged him for awhile. I still feel bad that I left...

Poor Will-O ... but how could you have known??? There is no way to have known. No possible way.
Don't feel bad...he WAS fine when you left...these things happen, he's a big strong boy and he called when he finally needed you. You got to have some fun and it all worked out in the end....as much as we like to think we can do it all, fix it all, BE all...alas...we cannot....;)damn.
