My appointment went well today. They think ltc is 6lbs 8 oz as of today, and my doctor thinks she may be ready a bit earlier than the 11th.
Or maybe you could just be Buffy, he'll see your amazing heart, and he'll fall in love with you.

Feh. Just found out my cousin's wife passed away (no details, typical of my family). I haven't spoken to my cousin since the wedding five years ago (no drama, just not close). If I were local, I would definitely go to the funeral. Trying to decide if I should drive down for it. Problem is that I have a friend coming to visit this weekend. He's in NY, and he's coming up because another friend of ours is having a party. So, not a huge deal for him if I'm out of town (i.e. he doesn't lose a plane ticket).
I feel like a bad person because if I didn't have this big weekend party/friend visiting, I would probably try to go.

Are you close to anyone who is also close to that cousin and who might be expecting you? If not, are you liable to catch grief for saying "My god, I'm so sorry, but I have people coming, I wish I could be there"?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Sorry for your family's loss, Vortex. But yeah, I dunno whether I would go to the funeral if I were in your shoes.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I think not going is okay, Vortex.
Of course I say that as I am planning on going to a funeral this weekend for a friend's father as we are close with their family. But it's almost the obverse of your situation. We'll be going out of town, but will also then spend a few days visiting my sister too.

other than my crazy mother? No, no one would expect me to come, I think. My mother sent me a text that said "Gracie died. Funeral Saturday. Coming?"
Of course, we are currently in a cold war since she told me to get out of her life because I didn't think it was my job to take care of her.
Also, I suspect that my mother would not have bothered to ask if my brother were still in town.

I think that I just feel guilty because if I hadn't had previous plans, I would have tried to go.
