Mom's Birthday

My mother celebrated her 74th birthday on Saturday the 10th of March. Mom is doing OK. We are waiting on word as to when her surgery will be. Doctor said he is removing half of the right lung. But she is gonna be fine and a trooper through it all.

My sister is the Cake Baker in the family. I only think I can bake a good cake. I can't top my younger sister who started this more than 20 years ago. This is her first fondant cakes.

Hope you have a good evening.

An Update on Mom

Many thanks to all of you for your comments, prayers and concern about my Mom. She is still experiencing a blockage when she swallows and there are more tests to be done. Today the doctors are running a light down the throat and esophogus looking for a blockage. There are more tests scheduled for next week though I am not sure what they are since she isn't sure what the doctor said. I am believing that whatever they find that it will be something minor and something that they can fix somehow real easy. I'll keep you informed. Again thank you and please keep the prayers coming.

My Pop saw the doctor Monday for tests to check his prostate cancer. He had treatments earlier this year and now need to know that the cancer is in remission. This is a strong man who kept on gardening through the spring and summer while going through treatments. Most of us would have given up on gardening and whatever else during treatments due to the side effects. Not Pop. Keep him in prayer as well.
