This evening, my paternal grandfather--to whom no one in my family is particularly close, but still--went in for surgery to remove a bowel obstruction. Surgery was supposed to be finished by 10 o'clock, at which point Dad would come home.
It's 12:30 in the morning now, and Dad's still not home.
UPDATE: It turns out that the surgery went fine, and Dad just stayed at the hospital until 2 am to make sure that his father was recovering from the anesthesia. (It was a non-intrusive colonoscopy, basically.)
