My Sweet Mom

For those who haven't yet heard the news, I am back in Atlanta to support my sweet mom who was diagnosed recently with Stage IV, Metastatic Breast Cancer. She is so brave! She has tumors all through her spine and walks around with a fractured back (the continual growth of the tumors have caused micro-fractures all throughout her spine). They also found the cancer in several lymphnodes throughout her neck and sternum. She underwent her first chemo treatment last Wednesday (10 days ago-ish) and will undergo 5 more treatments over the next 16 1/2 weeks. She remains positive and happy, still the beautiful and vibrant woman I have always known. I wouldn't want to be anywhere but here by her side.
