Good News!!!

My mother had an appointment today to see if the cancer had spread to the lymph nodes before they got the cancer out of her breast. The test results came back that the lymph nodes were clear!!! She will still have to do radiation therapy and possibly chemo, but this is now a huge weight off of my shoulders.

I brought my car into the body shop yesterday to get it fixed finally from when that damn cab pulled out in front of me. They called this afternoon and said it was done. That's damn fast! But I know they do good work. And I'm glad that I don't have to pay for it. The cab company's insurance is paying for it.... :)



So the Preakness Stakes were on this past Saturday. The Kentucky Derby winner, Barbaro, was the hopeful to win the Preakness, and possibly win the Triple Crown. Shortly into the race he severly broke his rear right leg. If you look at the picture above, he is the horse whose hind leg is sticking out to the side. Luckily, the jockey pulled him up quickly to prevent any more damage. He had a leg operation on Sunday, and so far he has pulled through. He now has 27 screws in his leg and he still has a long road of avoiding infections or even if the leg will heal properly. For any horse lover, it was painful to watch.
