So very sorry, Lukku and Frieda

One moment at a time, right? My own mom is 78 and getting so fragile...everything just starts to fall apart.

I don't know what to think. I really don't.

your mom's going to get so bored.. i've bought (and i've counted them) 36 magazines for my mom since she's had her surgery

OK, we just got back from the hospital, and we have somewhat of a diagnosis.

The doctor has been able to confirm for us that my mother does have quite an advanced case of cancer, and that it has spread to both lungs. Unfortunately the biopsy results still have not come back from Liverpool, so we don't have any more information on what kind of cancer it is - i.e. whether it originated in the lungs, or if it spread there from somewhere else.

I wish I had better news. I still do not know when I will be returning to Utah - I won't be able to make those plans until I know more about how fast my mother's cancer is progressing. Mum is quite weak and still running a fever, but she is able to keep her energy up by taking Tylenol a few times a day, and she has been eating much better since I've been here. She is not in any pain and is very brave and upbeat.

Generations

Our stories lie down in the orchard,
their time is not now, but something is
coming, something is going away. They

rise to the stars, and wait to be told.
There are listeners who know how little
we know, how much we are feeling.

We had to go our own way, a little off course,
always, no matter how specific the directions
seemed at the time. In this universe if we’re lucky,

we will live in our children’s stories,
their tales that will turn us to legend,
some absurd truth that has nothing to do

with our plans, our meticulous records.
No matter what stories we discard or keep,
they will give us a life we cannot imagine.
