well, i'm off to the hospital. SO and not a youngster, has a ruptured appendix. Got sick sunday, but men are difficult when they are sick and he never gets sick. but then he got better, planning on going to work this morning and then got really sick. his doctor told him go to ER so we did. Then I got thrown out of ER because they don't allow visitors in this age. But he allowed one designated visitor and I'm on my way. the thing is his surgeon said he can go home tonight if it's not too much of a mess in there. ???
