So my mom informed me this morning that the nephew was told during his last night session that he might not compete today after all (Saturday), but Sunday instead. This morning I called him to wish him good luck, this is when they had their measuring time, and he said he is competing after all. Wished him the best and told him to keep me posted on how it goes! His match ended up being a couple of hours later, however, based on the info my mom gave me (she is not attending as she leaves far away but she is the only one I am talking to right now to get news), his match was scheduled with a much larger guy so right before the match his couch forfited the game, so that’s it, show over.
I did not talk to my sister at all, but my mom told me the nephew told her that he heard our conversation from yesterday because my sister was yelling so loud (wow), and he felt bad we weren’t going to his match, but I am now honestly even more glad given the outcome, but definitely not glad he didn’t get a chance to have his moment, but I am sure there will be more. The just is, he didn’t have his first message, so hopefully next one scheduled will be closer by, and at a fixed time with enough heads up that we can attend.
