I'm back from my Mom's
hi there! I am back from being up in Maine at my mothers. SHe's very sick and things are looking rough. I can only pray that things get better, or at the very least easier on her. She has follicular lymphoma and diffused group b cell lymphoma. they'll be doing a bone marrow transplant in the next month, and they're putting in a new chemo port this week. She already has one, now they are putting in another.
It was nice being there with her and letting her have time with the kids, but it was also very hard to watch this cancer take over her whole life. not at all fair.
Anyhow, i am back and see that i have lots of catching up to do

I'm so glad you and the kids were able to spend some time with her, I know it must have meant the world to you both. Wishing your mom comfort and that this nasty disease is brought to it's knees and her health restored.
