So I just got a call from my mother, in tears (she's very emotional, so sometimes she cries over little stuff, so I wasn't sure whether to be alarmed or not)... She and my dad are extremely sick... At first, they thought it was food poisoning from dinner last night, but now, she's not sure...
Well, they were supposed to host Thanksgiving tomorrow... small group... my parents, FI and me, my brother, and my 96 y/o grandfather... Not sure if that's happening now... My mom isn't sure if they're going to be able to have anyone over tomorrow or not... I told her *IF* they can handle having us there, I'll pick up the slack and make/bring more stuff... but now, on the off chance they can't host, I may be faced with the task of cooking Thanksgiving dinner (which I've never done,... and will have to figure out my grocery list in the next 5 hours)...
I know my brother will be super disappointed (my parents are great cooks... I'm solid, at best)... and my grandfather won't be able to come (we can't accommodate him at our townhouse with his needs).... Of course I won't know until later today if I have to try to throw this together or not...
I acted very calm and soothing on the phone with my mom b/c she already sounded like she felt guilty for something she has no control over.... but honestly, I'm totally bummed and totally freaking out!
