Okay so in the year and eight months i have had Gatsby we have spent only a handful of nights apart and every time one of us was in the hospital thear was no way to avoid it.

My grandmothers birthday is this weekend and she wants to get all of us together and go out to a local bar run by a friend. I just turned 21 last year after her birthday so this will be the first year i will be able to go.

hears my dilemma, the van that takes people from the bar to there house will only make one trip for the 5 of us i don't trust the cab company in my city (especially if Ive been drinking) the onbly people who can drive me and the kids home will be at the party so im faced with leaving Gatsby with my best friend over night. the first night we would voluntarily spend apart or take him my grandmothers in his crate and hope the 8 children that will be there that night listen to my 16 almost 17 year old sister and leave him be thear is a room he can be shut in in his crate and he should be fine but then h will be alone in his crate for like 4 hours and if im going to gone more then two i always take him with me.

so should i spend our first real night apart or should i take him and trust my 16 year old sister (who lives with me so knows the rules and what to do if he gets hypoglycemic) to take care of him.

thanks for the advice in advance.
