On Wednesday morning, my 70 year old mother will be headed into surgery. She has ovarian cancer, and the tumor is so large, she looks pregnant. The thing grew really really fast, to the point that she did not notice it until the pain hit. I just came back from donating blood for her. She and I are different blood types, but I am a universal donor. As you may imagine, I am quite scared. I am sure she will come through the surgery fine. She has had surgeries before for other things, and always been fine. But there is something really scary about a fast growing cancer.
as I said, prayers are welcome and appreciated

For those of you who were praying, or sending good thoughts and wishes, you have my thanks. Your continued prayers will be needed. She came through the surgery alright, but the doctor found it was much worse than he expected, and had to remove much more than planned. She is going to have a long road to recovery, and come to terms with a few things on the way.
Thank you for your prayers, I know I am praying too. The good news... She is alive.

Humans make life so interesting. Do you know that in a universe so full of wonders, they have managed to create boredom. Quite astonishing.

Today my mother told me I need to come over and sign papers that will move some of her assets into my control. She had cancer surgery two months ago, and to me this says she is giving up. Some of you who have experienced losing a parent probably understand what I am feeling right about now. On one level it is practical to take care of business in a timely manner. On the other hand, while I realize that everybody dies, I hate to see my mother giving up. The doctor told her she had a very aggressive cancer, and even though he felt the surgery was a success, he still does not like the prognosis. I don't really care about the papers I am going to sign. I learned as a teen ager that no amount of money is worth the life of someone you love.
Your prayers are still welcome.

Will you walk into my parlour? said the Spider to the Fly,
Tis the prettiest little parlour that ever you did spy; The way into my parlour is up a winding stair, And I've a many curious things to show when you are there. Oh no, no, said the little Fly, to ask me is in vain, For who goes up your winding stair -can ne'er come down again. |
