Fearing tomorrow...
Sep. 17th, 2009 08:48 pmMum's scheduled to go back to the hospital and get her stitches taken out. Now we'll learn if the tumor was malevolent (high likeliness), whether they had been able to remove everything (desperate hopes), and whether she'll have to get chemo or radiation therapy (resigned acceptance, in case the answer is yes).
She's very nervous, the poor thing, and so am I. Thankfully, my cousin's wife will be able to take her there again with that comfortable car. Theoretically, I could ask favours at school, but it's better if I keep those chances unused for the time being. God beware, but we might need them later. *sighs*
Edit: GOOD NEWS!!!
It seems they've managed to remove all affected parts completely. The doctor told Mum she could slowly return to her pre-operative lifestyle. Aside from going back for control in six weeks, she doesn't need to do anything else.
JUCHUUUU!!!!!!
Thanks for the support and the good thoughts, they've helped immensely.

Please pass on my love and good wishes to your mum. Is there any gift she would like while she recovers?

You do face one more challenge, of course: getting Mum to take it easy, so she won't set back her recovery!

Date: 2009-09-18 08:28 pm (UTC)Mum's being fairly reasonable about taking it easy. She snatched back the privilege of doing the washing up the day she came home, and she did a bit of cooking, too, but she stays in bed enough not to overtax herself, so I'm carefully optimistic.

Date: 2009-10-11 11:45 am (UTC)Now that the immediate crisis seems to be over and only school-related stress is weighing me down, perhaps I can get back to regular writing, eventually...
