Update
Just wanted to give an update that I am currently in Hong Kong and will be here until next Monday. My dad is very ill out here, so I got a ticket about 24 hours ahead of time and came out Wednesday night. He was in ICU, but during the time it took me to fly out he was transferred and at least can somewhat communicate now. I am thinking that I will have him flown out to the States, but I need to speak with a doctor to make sure that it won't be an issue.
Hong Kong is a trip, haha. I miss the comfort of home, though, and especially Scott :-( I will be glad to get back to Boston. I miss my dog and my kittehs, too. Scott brought his sister's best friend, Ally, to pick up Pixie on Friday :-( I know that Cedric is probably really sad, but he is also happy to have Gia, and she balances out the house better. My friend Leslie is keeping Gia while I am gone, and Scott is checking in on the kittehs every couple of days. It is cute how much he loves the cats. Ugh, he is adorable. We must have spent about 8 hours on Skype between 3 AM last night (I woke up in the middle of the night and we video talked until about 6:30AM--which is the opposite on the east coast, of course) and 2:30 PM today (we got back on Skype at 11AM my time, and PM his time, lol).
It made me feel a lot better, though, as being out here alone in this big and extremely foreign city with my dad in the shape that he is in is really emotionally and physically draining. As it is, it is only 9:53 and I am exhausted. I am finding it very difficult to muster up any motivation to get out into the city and explore beyond a few walks to different places around my apartment or the hospital. Perhaps tomorrow....
