Unhappy Balancing Child and Family

I've got a dilemma......

This upcoming Saturday I'm scheduled to have a visit with Cupcake. ( )

This Friday, my grandfather is scheduled to have a very long and serious surgery.

We're creating a schedule of who's going to be at the hospital at all times, who's going to stay with my grandmother, who's going to drive her back and forth, do her grocery shopping, etc.

And I don't know what to do. I don't know how I can abandon my family in this time of need. I'm always the rock for my Mom, the person she turns to when she needs it, and I'm not sure I can be there for her.

Because I don't know how I can cancel a visit with Cupacke. I've waited so long for this and yet, I know the entire time I'll be worried about my grandfather. (He'll be in the ICU for several days pending a successful surgery).

Please, someone give me some kind of advice that makes me feel better about anything.....I'm feeling so horribly guilty about the thought of not being there for either of these things and I truly don't know what to do.
