Hoping your husband's surgery goes well and has a quick recovery!

Re: NQ
Thank you everyone. It's likely he'll be in the hospital over night, at least that's what his doctor has prepared us for but we've talked to other people that were able to leave the same day so who really knows. His mother will be sitting with me which I have mixed feelings about. She seems to be requiring the most support out of any of us through this process. Both my husband and I are ready to be past the surgery and on to recovery. He hasn't been feeling well lately and there isn't much I can do for him right now so I just feel bad.
I'm glad you will be with someone, even if it isn't your #1 choice.
From my own personal health crisis experience, I had friends/family that I had to comfort when I'd tell them that I had a brain tumor. It was a little off-putting at first ("Hi, I have some news. I have a brain tumor but I'm going to be ok." :::sound of friend crying:::: "Um, really, I'm going to be ok."). I soon realized that they were upset because they were sad or scared for hearing the news for the first time. Whereas, I already had time to process it.
She may be projecting her fear/worry to something very bad (is it a mom thing? IDK). My parents prepared themselves for the worse-case-scenario with my surgery, whereas me and mr erbur were very hopeful and positive, without being naive.
I hope you and your MIL are both able to find comfort (and maybe a little bonding) in each others company while your husband is under the care of excellent doctors and nurses.
