Sis-in-Law Is Back
My brother and his wife returned from Pennsylvania a couple of days ago. My mom called me to let me know they got back, and that things went okay. They won’t know much about her prognosis until she goes back for a checkup, though.
She had to stay in her room for four days because of the radiation thingie they put on her eye. Apparently it made her rather weak, because my brother was doing the housework and helping her take care of herself. Of course he treats her like a queen anyway, so maybe she’s not feeling as bad as I imagined.
I hope everything turns out okay. It’s not like she has severe mesothelioma or anything – it’s unlikely that anything worse than losing her eye would become of it. But that would certainly be bad enough. I know I wouldn’t be happy about that possibility, even if I was thankful that it wasn’t anything more serious.
I had hoped to go up there for a festival this weekend and see how she’s doing while in the area, but it doesn’t look like that’s going to happen. So I suppose I should at least give them a call. I know they would be checking in on me if the situation were reversed.
