I'm running on five hours of sleep. Just got a call from my family as they had the consult with my mother's cardiologist. The news isn't good. A double bypass, effective as soon as they get a second consult from another cardiologist to rule out any blockages in her neck that could put her at a risk of stroke during surgery.

Effectively eliminating any possibility of my parents watching me graduate. Effectively risking my ability to go to my own graduation if in fact the surgery can not wait.

My mother has asked that I be there for it. Hopefully we can wait until after the quarter is over. I don't even know what the situation would be if I had to leave in the middle.

Pretty much the exact opposite of what we were hoping for today.
