Mom has cancer, part two

Just when we thought things were getting better, the doctors discovered my mom had a brain tumor. She was having some side effects from the meds she has to take for 5 years following the breast cancer. They did an MRI just to rule out anything. It confirmed that she indeed had a tumor.

Thankfully, again, all praise to God, the surgery removed the tumor completely. The current status is that she has to get MRIs every few months, but she has even returned to work now. Praise be to God.

Thankfully, we only had one American student living with us that summer so I really was free to help her out as she needed.

If I remember correctly, I was also working with James at his office as his assistant. (which also clearly had a lot of flexibility). People cracked jokes about how they hoped we would survive living and working together. Of course there was some adjustment, but we did indeed survive. I'm really blessed to be in a marriage where I feel I can honestly say we are a really good team.
