Well, todays the day. Today is finally surgery day for my mom. She got diagnosed with breast cancer a few weeks ago and we have all been anxiously awaiting this day. Today is really when treatment begins and when we will finally find out more information. After her surgery we’ll learn more, like if she’ll
Aside from the drama I’m about to tell you, I’ll fist start off by saying that we’re currently in an icy winter storm, and we’ve had no power since yesterday, and likely won’t for a few more days. Yaaaaaay Texas. Anyway. What I have yet to disclose or talk about, is that my mom was
