Not my typical Christmas Eve

Both my sister and my father ended up in the hospital on Christmas Eve. Eileen had to go in for emergency eye surgery while Dad had to go the emergency room for diabetes-related complications. While they gave us a bit of a scare, both are okay — Eileen’s already been sent home and Dad’s already looking much better and may get to go home this weekend.

Order and harmony have been mostly restored, and our annual extended family Christmas get-together will go on tonight as scheduled.
