Well, the best laid plans...
For the last 14 months I've been planning a week-long WDW trip for my 74yo DM who hasn't been in over 30 years. Arranged BWV (with walking/scooter access to 2 parks) at 11 months out, ADRs made at 180 mark, tours, scooter rental, airfare, MVMCP tix, etc etc etc.
Mom had a prolonged near-death ICU stay 2 years ago with overwhelming infection but had recovered amazingly and had even moved into a new home about a month ago. Monday (2 weeks prior to WDW trip) she became delirious and now is hospitalized again with widespread infection from who-knows-where.
Worry for her health is primary of course, but you people of all people can understand the disappointment of over a year's worth of planning falling apart like a house of cards. 2 years DVC points lost, DS and her DH and 2 kids lose their vacation, my and DGf's 1st time off in over a year most likely spent visiting Mom, no MF or TSM meet now after the big sign-up race and waiting list rescue from Pete's supporters, blah blah blah. You get the idea.
I don't know how/when any of us will get to WDW anytime soon. If/when Mom recovers, I may still try to get her down there but Christmas with the whole family probably will never happen now.
Sorry for the length. Just a bit of venting. I don't know about Susan (MerriePoppins), but I may not be around for a while. Not sure I want to think about Disney this week. Hoping all have a blast at TSM.

I am so sorry this happened this way. I know it hurts! I pray they find something out fast and fix it. I know it happened when they get infections and a lot of times it is a UTI... but I would think they would check that first. Sending some
