[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like a big misunderstanding. You mentioned the surgery a few months in advance, so she probably thought either it was something minor, or very personal and you didn't want her around. Surgery is so broad, I had dental surgery to remove wisdom teeth and was at happy hour the next day. It's the weekend before Christmas so she probably made plans to see friends before the holiday and had no idea you were expecting her to babysit. You also haven't really said what kind of help you needed. How hard would it have been to say 'hey, x, I'm having surgery the weekend before Christmas, would you be able to stick around and help with the kids?' If you had asked in advance, she probably would have stayed and helped. But you can't just mention surgery casually, and then expect her to change her travel plans on a moments notice when you didn't even ask her to stay. She isn't a mind reader![/quote]
