Knock-kneed

Mom has gone in for surgery. She is due for knee replacement surgery on both legs. Her second surgery is due on Saturday. I know her knees will never be what they were, but I hope the replacement gives her a new lease of life. I've been very stressed out and so has the sis. She gets hyper and frazzled easily and called me up and told me that Mom was in a lot of pain but was very brave about it. She sounded very nervous and I know it must have been very hard and taxing for her. I haven't slept for more than 3 hours on any night since 2 weeks, because I turn insomniac when I worry and I am very worried and I hope both the surgeries go off well.

It is at times like these that I know who my true friends are.
