My mom had surgery on Thursday to remove the cancer. She appeared to be fine on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

BUT NOW....

I am trying REALLY hard to not freak out right now as I just received a phone call from my mom's best friend, Michelle, saying that they took my mom into the emergency room.

and breathe.

He said to her, You will not be coming over here (heaven) for a long while. And I believe him. I will hold onto that life preserver, cling to it, every single moment. Fear and doubt will fight me for it, but they can't have it. It's mine. We are stronger than fear and we are stronger than doubt. She belongs to me and the cancer can go fuck
