1. InlandEmpireGirl and I took Mom to the Cancer Center in Coeur d'Alene to talk with her doctor about an MRI she underwent on her back. Her Kellogg doctor thought there were some suspicious areas. It's arthritis. No cancer. Relief. Oh my what a relief!
2. Tonight I saw Silver Valley Girl perform in the critically acclaimed (at least in our family) melodrama she wrote, "Nightmare at Dream Gulch, . . . or Wake Me When It's Over" at the Center of the Universe (aka Wallace)'s Sixth Street Melodrama. Laughs, booing, hissing, sighing, singing, boisterous applause filled the theater. It was a campy play, just what a melodrama should be! It was fun to see PKR, and Silver Valley Girl's kids all be part of the production. We all had a robust night!
3. It was a great family day. Good news in Cd'A. Good night at the theater. And then, to top it off, root beer or Pepsi floats at Mom's and InlandEmpireGirl started sorting through the hundreds of photographs that have not been organized over the last fifty years or so and we laughed and laughed and laughed at old pictures and remembered days we loved and days we'd just as soon forget. It was all good!

Relief is right! Relief about the good news with Mom, relief that there was enough ice cream, root beer, and Pepsi, and relief that we figured out who the strange woman was in the picture that Mom couldn't recognize ( especially since it was her own mother!!!). lol
Congratulations to your family that your Mom is cancer-free! She might want to try drinking Glucosamine-Chondroitin, which is great for the joints and buildng cartilage. (You can get it at Wal-Mart). My dad has been taking it for several years for his arthritis, and it has made a big difference in the way he feels.
My husband started taking it also, and he doesn't feel the pain he had in his knees when he had the cartilage scraped out several years ago. He also tore a ligament in one of his arms years ago, and it has quit hurting, and he can do pull-ups again.
I think it re-builds connective tissue and lubricates joints.
