I would think most of my blog readers already know that my mom had surgery today to remove cancer from her bladder. It is a strange day when your mom has cancer surgery. It means she has cancer. I don't say that to be funny, it is how your brain works. Like when I had my thyroid biopsy last summer. Your brain just keeps thinking, biopsy means you just might have cancer.
Background:
She was being treated for a bladder infection that returned the month after she finished her antibiotics. Her Ob/gyn gave her a new prescription. In the meantime she met with her GP for an annual checkup. She mentioned to him about the bladder infection. He suggested that at her age (57) that she needed a scan just to check it out. He got her an appt set up, they did the scan on Friday and found what he called 3 cancers.
The doctor said he thinks he got it all and that she should not need any treatment. That is the prayer.

I had no idea this was going on Shelley. Thanks for the update. I know that can be scary and how it can make your mind race to all the things that could unfold. I will be praying.
Praying that everything will be okay with your Mom. Just caught up on reading your blog. Glad you hear you guys are settling in okay. Fun to hear about homeschooling. We're in that boat with you... it's awesome, and hard sometimes, but mostly awesome. :)
