Detour....... Montana

I made a quick trip to Montana last week. I was freezing and very tired. The Swimming Grandma got to ride to Montana then from Salt Lake for the next 9 hours with my girls. I don't remember much about the trip. I was in and out of conciousness(sleepyness) most of the way. We arrived at my moms at 2am on Saturday I believe. My mom was diaognosed with brain and lung cancer a couple of weeks before and so I went home to help her get her affairs in order so that their is no stress for her during her radiation and chemo treatments for the next few months. She is a healthy lady that loves to be busy and constantly on the move. It was difficult to keep up with her. She was constantly up and out of bed. We don't understand why she has this but we are there to support her in this time of her life that she will need all the faith and prayers from friends and family. Mom and Carl have a great support group of friends there and so there really wasn't much for me to do after I took care of what i needed to do. Her friends were there and were going to be taking her to her treatments and keeping her fed. Carl is helping getting the garden ready for her to plant and her strawberrys are coming back to life again for another bumper crop that will be waiting for her. She really doesn't have time for all this cancer stuff at this time in her life. It will be a battle but she is a fighter and she will do what needs to be done. We love you Mom and we are praying for you.
