Which is totally backwards for me (as you know). I usually don't mind storm and we can always use the extra money. We have a big storm moving in today and lasting 3 days.
Thursday is our appt with the specialist....one and half hours away (roughly 70 miles). That's a long way in messy weather. I can get as far as my FIL's and he will drive the rest of the way, but that's still an hour on a few iffy roads. Plus, DH really wants to be at the appt. And we've had a lot of storm recently. I guess the Farmer's Almanac was right...we are in for a long, snowy, stormy winter.
So I'm really, really praying that if there is storm duty, it is short and he can come home for Thursday. But if there is storm, it will probably go until the weekend. :/

Praying! Does he not have any options for medical emergencies or anything? Can they not refuse storm duty ever?

Praying! Does he not have any options for medical emergencies or anything? Can they not refuse storm duty ever? If she was in the hospital, I was in labor, etc. they yes, he could get out of it. It has to be an extreme situation. Refusal to go on storm duty without an emergency can be grounds for immediate firing. If it isn't going to be too bad and they keep a couple trucks home, he can ask to do that.

Looking very likely that DH will be on storm duty and that I'll have to reschedule the appt. Which is the last thing I want to do. But this storm is now going into Friday. Freezing rain to snow to freezing rain back to snow. Bleck. I will be calling the family doc tomorrow to see if her lab results came in. If anything came back positive, Friday isn't suppose to be terrible so we can deal with getting meds or whatever then. I also will be asking the specialist when I reschedule if I can add more back into her diet.
