I've just gotten off the phone to my sister. My mum is having an operation on Monday. She saw a specialist a couple of weeks ago, and then went back because they called her with results that they needed to talk to her about... They said that it wasn't anything major.
Now they are saying that there may be a chance that she need chemo.
I don't know what to think. I do know that they are doing what they are doing to err on the side of caution.
I asked if they wanted me to come home for it. They said no.
Now all I have to do is not talk about this. People won't understand my need to respect my family and their preference. All I know is if there is something wrong, I will be there in a heartbeat.
I just hope that they are overreacting. Erring on the side of caution sounds good in practice, but is very scary...
