As many of you know - my mom has been sick for a long time. She's been having pains in her uterus so she went to the doctors yesterday.
The doctor has informed her that she either has pre-cancer or cancer. If it's cancer, there is nothing they can do. If it's pre-cancer, they may be able to treat it.
No need putting the cart before the horse yet but I do have a conversation with my mom later (My sister told me because my mom isn't ready).
She - my mom - doesn't want to do the tests on Monday due to jury duty. Not to mind read, but I'm pretty such its more that she's not ready to hear it. My sister is pushing - because she needs to know.
I plan on just listening and Remembering that as much as I am scared or angry or whatever.. it's not really about me.
I just really want to be there for my mom.
So here is other shoe - and its okay. I feel like I have the tools. The main tool is that this is completely in God's hands.
All I can do is support and pray.

Show empathy when there's pain. Show grace when warranted. Kindness in the midst of anger. Faith in the face of fear.
