• It never ends

  So yesterday, at 7:30 in the morning, I get awakened to a phone call from my mother.  My grandmother fell in the wee hours of the morning, and she landed on her face, so mom convinced her to go to the hospital.  They did a cat scan, as they suspected she may have broken her nose and maybe a bone in her hand, and they found a tumor.

  On her brain.

  After an MRI, the neurologist has said that from the shape, it’s malignant and fast growing.  They’ve done another cat scan, to look for more tumors anywhere else in her body.  She has not been told yet, she just knows they’re trying to get the swelling in her brain down to do a biopsy.

  If I disappear for a bit, it’ll be because I’m probably going to have to travel to PA for a bit, once we know a bit more of what kind of time frame we’re dealing with. 

   

  Man, seems there’s always stuff like this when I’m pregnant.  With Kellen, I had two funerals in two weeks during my seventh month.  This whole situation is worse than those.
