Jan. 31: To all those who have been checking my website for
updates on Mom’s continued recovery, I apologize for the long delay
between posts. Andrew’s recent bouts with pink eye, a high fever,
and getting two new teeth sapped all my extra time and energy.
But
the good news is that there really hasn’t been much to report in the
last week or so. Mom continues to improve. She went to
Terry’s condo last week, went out to Culvers with Dad on Saturday, and
yesterday Dad brought her over to my place for the afternoon. She
kept me company while we tended to a somewhat unhappy Andrew.
She’s still very tender and taking it slow. Several naps
help. But she’s looking good, and I’m sort of awed at how well
she’s recovering. Mom has an appointment back up at Mayo in the
next week when I believe she meets with an oncologist there to talk
about additional chemo options. I’ll post an update when we know
more about what her next treatment will be.
Thanks again to so, so, so many people for thinking of Mom while she
had her surgery. I still can’t believe that it went so well.
This post made me smile! It makes school and the dentist look like a lot of fun!
