I haven't told many people about this due to the fact that I don't want everyone to have that "I'm so sorry look" on their face. My Mom was recently diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer. She goes in next week for a mastectomy and will obviously be out of it for a few weeks. It is unknown if she will need chemo until after the procedure. But in most(but not all) cases they do at stage 2. She is a stubborn woman and is keeping her lips sealed on what is going on. Mothers!!!! :roll: If all my friends here could be so kind and take a moment next Monday to say a prayer or send a thought her way I would be forever greatful. And yes if you feel the need to say "I'm sorry" feel free to...just don't give me that sad look every time you look at me....unless it's because I am getting my ass kicked at a game. :lol:
Also I know it is the holiday weekend next weekend but if anyone wants some free beer or to make a few bucks we could use help moving our stuff out of the apartment on the 3rd. You would just have to help us load up the truck. We would move it to the new house and unload it. Unless you want (and who would in their right mind) to help us unload as well. We won't feel put out if no one says yes. We knew it was a long shot getting help on the 4th of July weekend. It was the only weekend we could do this.
Thanxs everyone.
Chad

Just a little update about Mom. Her surgery went very well. :D The tumor was only a short distance into her muscle tissue so only a small piece of it was removed instead of the whole thing. They did have to take her breast though. :( On a positive note they think they got to it in time and Chemo may not be needed. :D Three lymph nodes were found to be blocked but NOT cancerous so they were removed as a precaution. The plastic surgion said everything went great on his end as well. Thank you all for your support in this. :)

Glad to hear things are looking up for her. I lost an aunt to breast cancer a few years back. She fought a losing battle with it for years. My wife's aunt on the other hand has a double mastectomy and has survived and had no issues for several years now.
