Robert,
Good news. Thanks for sharing with us and best of prayers and well wishes for healing, strength and re-ordering of priorities to realize tomorrow is never a "given" on this blue marble. Share love and tears with those who matter... life here has an expiration date, but life with Him is everlasting.
We shall all meet again at another time and place.
May your Mom be here with you a good long while and find strength and joy in her recovery!
