They didn't even wait until Monday...as soon as I got here last night, Mom checked her messages and the results are positive. Don't get me started on how I think there is a much better way to hear this kind of news than straight up on the answering machine....sigh. I'm glad I was here when she needed the support. We'll call today and find out all of the particulars and get things scheduled to move forward.
She, of course, wants me to go ahead and drive back down the hill to do Stitches and see my friends....I'm just not sure, yet. Gonna make a strong pot of coffee and get a shower and do a little knitting before they wake up...gad, this is going to be a rough ride. Be sure your seat belts are securely fastened. Keep your eyes on the road, senses on full alert. We'll need all the help we can get.
Hang in there! I'll send positive thoughts for you and your mom!

Okay I'm thinking good mama thoughts for you. Take her with you to Stitches, and let her browse while you track down friends. I wish I was going, although I'm saved from spending way to much on yarn I don't need this wya. :-)
Enjoy your time with your mom, and give the doctors what for while you're at it.
