Tomorrow is the day...

... of the long knives. In other words, Mum's scheduled for surgery tomorrow morning. On the one side, I'm glad the endless waiting is over and they're actually doing something for a change.

On the other side, I'm scared shitless.

I won't know anything until tomorrow afternoon, till five or six, as I'll be at school all day. Not that sitting on the clinic floor not doing anything useful would help. *sighs*

Keep us in your good thoughts.

Update: Mum's as okay as it can be expected under the circumstances for the time being. Hope it continues to remain so. She's currently in the IC, but - hopefully - will be brought back to a normal room in two or so days.

Couldn't talk to her doctor as he was gone before I arrived. The hubby of a lovely colleague of mine - also a doctor - promised to hunt him down and squeeze all necessary info out of him. Let's hope and pray.

So glad the surgery went well. Hope you soon get to have a good talk with the doctor, that he says something constructive, and that your mum will soon be recovered enough to leave IC.

Thanks for updating us, E. Rest now *hugs*

It turns out, she only was in IC a single night, which is good. Today she was allowed to stand up and could even walk a few steps.

The problem is now if all that stuff they've removed is in truth malignant and what the next steps will be. Am still frigging worried.
