Update on WG's mom.

[icarus]

Great news!

Just heard from wildernessguru's sister. The surgery on his mom went very smoothly and they believe they got 90% of the cancer. The remaining 10% (in the liver) they plan to zap with chemotherapy.

She said, "They think they can fight it back for two years. And if it returns, they'll zap it again."

WG and I are going down to see her as soon as we can, hopefully before the chemo starts so she'll be feeling a little better.

I thanked his sister effusively for keeping us up to date and told her, "I haven't seen [WG] this calm since the building was on fire. Calm and intense, planning for every worst-case scenario."

His sister snickered, "His crisis reaction, eh?"

Yeah. I think I just saw why the California Department of Fire wants him back.

Now he's back to normal, soft and snuggly. And he took a long, peaceful nap.

I've been off LJ for a few days - my grandma had surgery on Wednesday (she's fine) - and wanted to send my good thoughts and best wishes for her improvement and many more years with all of you.

Thank you, I really appreciate it (and I'm glad your grandmother is okay). Yes, we're hoping for at least another four years.
