Rough Week

This past week has been rough. Last Friday, my mom had surgery to remove one of her kidneys. The doctors had been monitoring a small tumor on her kidney for about a year and a few weeks ago, at her most recent MRI, they noticed the tumor was changing. So they decided to remove it so they could do a biopsy. On Wednesday, we got the news that the tumor was cancer. Luckily, they caught it very early and they were able to remove all the cancer during the surgery. The odds are very low that the cancer will return so we are cautiously optimistic that everything will be fine. My mom is healing well and everything is going fine so far but it is still very scary to know that your mom has cancer. We are so thankful that the cancer was caught early and we will continue to pray for her to have good health for many years to come.
