It’s been a week since I got the call from one of my brothers that my mom has had an aggressive form of Breast Cancer. It seems like so much longer since I got that iniital call. There have been so many tests and so many appointments that have been made over the course of just a few days. The waiting is the hardest part. We know that her diagnosis is; one that isn’t pleasant but would just like to know what can be done to save our mom. There are so many things that need to be done but depending on the outcome of a few pending tests, our hands are tied. We don’t know what to do. It’s all a waiting game at this point.
So, where do we stand??? At this point, I have no idea, Until we get an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan, we can’t really decide on anything. We are getting her the treatment that she needs at this point. Once the diagnosis comes in, Mom will have to decide what she wants to do. That’s not easy! I want my mom to be around, crazy and all. (Those who have known me the longest understand.) BUT, it is her life and she has to make a decision on what she wants to do and I truly love her regardless of whatever she does. She can take treatment or not but it’s totally up to her. Until next time………
