September 9th ~ Uncertainty

I got a call from Mom today around noon....

She sounded afraid. She was.

She'd seen her doc this morning and after not good results from a new blood test they have canceled, Monday's surgery, scheduled a C-T scan for Wed, and have set her up with an oncology surgeon.

The blood test results indicate that it MAY have spread. It may not have. I hope it hasn't.

I asked if she wanted me to come over until Dad got home. She said she was fine and that I didn't need to do that....until I asked her if she'd had any lunch and she burst into tears. My Mom isn't normally emotional in that way. I got there as fast as I could. She lives about an hour away. One of my brothers and my sister showed up too. We talked, listened, prayed, laughed, and generally calmed her down. I think we all felt better about it, especially Mom, by the time we left.

The white noise is back in my head.
