Mark's mom

Today Mark, the boys and I flew home to PA. Yesterday Mark's mom was feeling really sick all day. Mark's sister took her to the ER last night. They did some tests and discovered a brain tumor the size of golf ball. We were all very shocked. They ran more tests and the tests were encouraging. There are no more tumors or abnormal growths anywhere.

She is scheduled for brain surgery on Monday morning. They are going to remove the whole tumor. They will not know if it is cancerous or not until they remove it. We are hopeful and trusting in the Lord. We are praying for many more years with her.

Tomorrow is her birthday. We are so glad to be her to celebrate with her. It brings her a lot of joy to be around the kids. Mark's brother, his wife and the kids are also coming into town for this weekend.

This definitely sparked many emotions and brought back many memories from my mom's sickness. However, we are hopeful and prayerful for complete recovery.
