I am so grateful for the ability to facetime with my best friend, my mom. She started her chemo treatments today and I was able to be there with her via facetime. Rhonda and Dana were of course there too. We talked with her doctors and learned the process and what activites Mom could do and some of the things that might be expected to happen. The best news was the chemo treatment itself is only one day. What we thought to be four days of treatment only meant that the first day was chemo and the last three were just taking her medication. That was a huge relief. She can go out and receive visitors as long as they are healthy and the public places are not too enclosed or full of alot of people.
Mom received a nice blessing from Dallas and Bruce the night before, so today she looked comfortable with this whole new thing. Round 1 was today and she will do this five more times at three weeks apart. We figured she should be all better by end of September.
I took pictures of me and mom!

There are no words that I can express my deepest feelings of love for my mother, my teacher in all walks of life! I want to be just like her when I grow up!
You are.
