Yes, thank you!

Thank you, ladies, for all the kind, sincere replies.  I've had surgery on my finger, and it is healing.  I did not tell DS about the procedure until after it was over. 

Wishing everyone peace and happiness.

Hello Everyone! So thankful for this forum since i need insight and help to try to understand our family situation.  So, here goes: I had an accident Thursday, fell on wet floor dislocating (shattering) my finger. DH took me to ER which is about 45 miles away and about 20 minutes from where my DS lives. Son happened to call right after i fell and of course i was home alone and asked him to cal his dad to come home. My finger was bent at awkward angles so i knew it was bad. I told DH to tell my son not to come to ER after we arrived  because I didn't want to cause any problems knowing how DIL is. Anyway, DS came to ER and stayed 45-60 minutes while the dr tried to put my finger back in place. She texted him and said he didn't need to be there since DH was with me. DiL was at work anyway and GD at daycare. Poor son was in trouble when he got home. This is only one of many incidents we have had to deal with. Would you be hurt if your son couldnt check on you at the hospital?
