So my mom had a double mastectomy + new breast reconstruction surgery earlier today. Amazed that's even possible in one go.
I stopped by on my way home to see how she was doing, and she is feeding her dogs (she has 10 of them). My dad was helping, but i was like, wtf are you doing? You just had major surgery and you are 73! It really is incredible what can be done today with advances in medicine and technology. To her credit, she is in incredible shape, eats correctly and exercises to a fault, like her son. I have her to thank for instilling those attributes in me.
