In other news...

As if Grandma didn't have a hard enough time with Grandpa passing, she got some more bad news. She had been having tummy problems. The doctor blamed it on a normal issue. Grandma was not satisfied and demanded more in depth testing. The day Grandpa passed away Grandma went in for the test. The day before his funeral in California she got the call that she had cancer. She needed to bring her family in to discuss treatment. She has stage three ovarian cancer. This is not good but there is positive things too. Other than this she is in excellent health. For most people her age they do gentle treatment, they try to avoid surgery and Chemotherapy, but because she is in good health her doctors think she can handle it. She has a surgery date for February 19th. Let's hope they can get it all!

Oh April, I'm sorry! That must be so hard for her to go through, especially just after losing her dear husband. We'll keep her in our prayers.

That is too bad about Jeremy's grandma. We'll be praying for her.
