Thanks all! Just had a quick chat with mom (she came to pick up dcb) and hopefully by end of week they will know if dcg is transferred to another hospital or what the plan is. Basically mom told me if she is getting paid from work then she can pay me, if not then she can't pay me so looks like I might have spaces becoming available in a few weeks Mom gets the rest of this week paid (using sick days) and then next 3 weeks paid (using up vacation) but after that if dcg is in hospital still she isn't getting paid so I would assume they won't be here anymore Oh they joys of this unstable business...eek!
