Good luck tomorrow, Mel! I'll be interested in hearing how your DH goes with the varicocele surgery... mine's doing the typical male thing of sticking his head in the sand and ignoring it for now. Fine by me, there's only so much I can handle happening all at once! I'd always thought my DH didn't do the typical male thing of the world is ending when they are sick... he's been through colds, asthma, all that sort of thing and I have trouble getting him to stop... This tummy bug - yikes! He's all better now, but I've never before seen that aspect of him - maybe we should just leave the varicocele as is - I'd hate to see him recovering from surgery on his sensitive bits!

I'm thinking the day off on Wednesday would be good... but the other side of things is that the distraction of being at work would also be good - otherwise I'll sit and stare at the phone all day. I suspect it will be a last minute decision in the end.
