The Summer of 2009

This has been a good summer and a terrible summer. The good part is that I got my lap band on June 29th, and have been doing great. No pain anymore; incisions healed; tolerating soft foods and slowily losing weight. The way it should be.

 

The bad part: my mom has the newly diagnosed breast cancer. She had an MRI of the brain earlier today and the cancer has spread to her brain in multiple areas. It is also in her lungs. We are waiting for the results of the bone scan.

 

Fortunately, my mom feels well except for some balance issues. We'll see an oncologist on Monday.

 

So, that's my story for now. I would like to turn back time to when cancer wasn't a part of my life, but that option isn't there. So, onward I go with all the strength and love I can muster for my mom and my family, and all of you.
