My mom is 71 she has tumor the size of a 6 month old fetus in side of her. I have been telling her to get it fixed for at least 5 years. She is smart to something very dumb to others. She has this saying "doctors are just practicing " I have told her many times that doctors have come a long way from poking you with a shot of penicillin. She is going for surgery tomorrow. She is fearing that the doctors are going to incapacitate her. I am her oldest. Can't be there because of complications my 2 younger brothers are going. My youngest brother will keep me posted.
