Bad news first: Ebby’s apetite wasn’t coming back and she threw up again, so we brought her to the emergency veterinarian. A sonogram and complicated surgery later, the surgeon says she’s still not out of the woods, even though all the thread is out of her and multiple holes in her small intestine have been sewed up. The next 72 hours will be very important for her. If she is able to eat tomorrow, she may be able to come home and gain her strength back here. We are all hopeful.
Only one of these people has been wait-listed at Amherst.
On the plus side, Zoe got acceptance emails from two colleges, Amherst and Mount Holyoke. She is now four-for-four in acceptance letters. Too bad she won’t be able to visit either of these colleges for accepted student days because accepted student days are off.
We also started online learning in earnest. For dinner, Lanie made an extra lasagna, which we carted over to friends who are suffering through quarantine and sickness at the same time, though we are hoping they’re not suffereing from the sickness which is causing everyone else to be quarantined.
Here is the day in pictures:
From my workstation, I could turn around and see Lanie, and there’s Jen working in the dining room.
Ready for Lanie’s lasagna assembly line
Dream come true: I sat in with the Indigo Girls during their Facebook livestream. This number is called “Land of Canaan.”
Catan tonight
