Ok so I have a question for those of you who have little ones at home. How do you handle it when they have to be in the hospital yet you can't be there for them?

Well not so far, been setting in Laredo go 80 hours at #1 and can't get a load. Company sent out a message yesterday morning saying volume is picking up and to stay in service accept all load so they can keep their customers happy. Be nice if they could keep me happy, or were concerned about that.
