Kansas is a weird place. When Ken and I drove through there almost 4 years ago, we marveled at the amount of roadside porn shops, adjacent to convenience stores and rest stops, out in the middle of nowhere. I really tried to not use the restrooms through that stretch.

Try asking the doc for Tessalon Pearls if the coughing gets out of control. Those things totally stop the coughing, better than any of the syrups.
So, I'm a bit more calm now. Ken distracted me with some chess and fresh chocolate chip cookies. My mom's resting up at the hospital overnight, and they'll run some final tests in the morning. She's asked that I continue with the party plans, in hope that she'll make it. I'm wondering if she's just telling me that, because she doesn't want me to be upset.
She's always said that it's the parents' job to worry, and not the other way around.
Yeah, ok. Here's hoping it's just scar tissue that can be easily removed.
I don't handle stuff like this very well, probably because I never had a close friend or family member get critically ill or die up until 6 years ago. So, I never had to learn to cope with it. (Three of my grandparents were gone before I was born.) If I had learned the process as a kid, it'd probably be a bit easier now. Who knows.
Ok, now I'm babbling.
