Heart Update on my MOM :-)

Yesterday was my mom's surgery which she came through with flying colors. Her doctor feels she has the BEST case scenario because they do not feel the cancer has spread and her lymph nodes were negative. PRAISE GOD! I know so many of you have e-mailed and PM'ed me so I wanted to let everyone know! She is home and sounds GREAT today. We should know the next step as far as treatment pretty soon.

Thank you for all the prayers and support I have gotten in the past week or so since I posted the news. You are such amazing friends...I needed you and you were THERE.

Many Hugs
