Hi there. I have a kinda touchy situation going on right now and I'm not sure how I should handle it. My ex-brother-in-law passed away this afternoon VERY suddenly & VERY unexpectedly (he & my sister have only been divorced less than a year, and have been pretty close since). Anyway, with the holiday on the fourth and my surgery scheduled for the 5th, they will prolly have the funeral on the same day or a day or two after (at the latest). He is/was a really nice guy, but I don't think I would really be missed if I weren't there, and I am really, really looking forward to getting my sleeve done.... would you cancel surgery and go to the funeral, or just send your condolences and get sleeved? I don't want to come across as an unfeeling bi*** either. UUUUUGGGGHHHH, I'm so confused!

Thanks for any suggestions you might have...

Condolences to you and both families. I am glad you have reached a decision.
