Road to Recovery

Mom has been home from the hospital for a few days now. She is not allowed to move her right arm at all and is only allowed to move her left arm very little for the next several weeks. Kristen's nursing skills are in full swing, while the rest of us are pitching in everywhere else! Mom cannot yet go out anywhere; however, there have been a few online shopping purchases :) She had a visit from one of her chemo friends today named Shelley, along with her husband. They brought over some delicious chicken tortilla soup, and Mom and Shelley were able to swap surgery stories. The four of us Minions have been taking turns escaping the house for various errands, and today we all sat on the couch and watched the "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" movie from redbox.

Tomorrow morning Dad will make his famous cinnamon toast for breakfast before mass. Also this is big news...Dad became a Eucharistic minister this summer, so he can bring the Eucharist to Mom on the days she doesn't feel well enough to go to mass :)

Thank you for continuing to pray for Mom's speedy recovery so she can begin the next leg of her treatment in a few weeks...radiation!
