La Salud!

Okay, soooooo I have 15 minutes of spare time before I go home. This is going to be the quickest post I've ever done, but it is a much awaited update.

Here we go.....

My mother:

Had 3-4 procedures
Was in the hospital for 5 days
Had her gull bladder removed
Had gull stones in her liver (hence so many  procedures)
Is now home, fully recovered and back at work

That is a very delayed update, I apologize.

My father:

Also home
Was in the hospital for 9 days
Has been diagnosed with Stage III A or B Colo-rectal cancer (mostly rectal)
Cancer was found in one lymph node
Is getting a chemo port put in tomorrow

Will have 3 stages of 8 week treatment

1. Once a week chemotherapy
2. Three times per week chemo and radiation
3. Once a week radiation (I think)

Is healing well, they usually wait 6 weeks to start treatment, but are able to start after only 5 weeks

So, I think that's all I know for now. As I said, I'm about to journey home and may be able to add more later. I will only be home for about seven hours though, because Derek and I are headed out to meet Jenn in Atlanta in the morning (my siblings for anyone who might not know). I don't have time for the story behind it right now (that I failed explain in Spanish), but will fill in the details later. It's officially been 15 minutes. 

Adios!
