A Surprise Trip to Oregon

My Mom's doctors discovered that she has kidney cancer. Luckily it is just in her left kidney and they scheduled a surgery to remove it. I flew out for the surgery and stayed with my friend Megan since her house was the closest to the hospital in Springfield. It was nice to be able to be there. I got to hang out a ton at the hospital and help my mom for her first day home. I got to see my brother-in-law's new meat shop that happens to be in the old Papa Murphys building that I was an assistant manager in. (It looks so much more awesome now! He did a great job) I also got to have a few dinners with family and friends. It was a hard, exhausting trip, but worth it. Mom is now healing nicely and the doctor's expect her to be just fine.
