Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for week of 1/14

I'm so sorry I haven't checked in. I don't even remember if I told you any of this. My mom got a really bad migraine last Monday and her eye site just went dim. I've been with her ever since, to the emergency room and then they got her a room for a night at the hospital. She has a tumor in her head which we have known about for 15 years. The tumor is about 45 years old, it's hard as a rock and has calcium growth around it. When we initially found it, the hospital didn't want to touch it because part of it was wrapped around an aertery. They said it was slow growing and she should be ok with it the rest of her life. Well, not so. It grew 4 cm and that is what caused her head and eye problems. Now they want to remove it. She is on steroids and that has eleviated the swelling so she is able to see enough to function on her own. I'm hoping once the tumor is totally removed, she will be able to see much much better again. I'm taking her to see her family doctor today for a follow-up and then we have to schedule the surgery. Say a prayer for her, please.

Today I finally got a good workout in. It's funny how you just don't want to workout when things are upside down in life. I decided to do Run Fit by Candace and did well with the workout. Not as well as I did the first time, but ok. I really like this workout.

Debbie, many prayers to your mom. I know what you mean that when things are upside down in your life it is hard to focus on much else. My dad was sick all summer, (the month of June is a blur, he had colon surgery and then many complications) and you find it hard to do everyday things. It sounds like your mom is a fighter and this will all be ok with many prayers to you and your family, and your strength and support she will get through this. The power of prayer is a powerful thing. My dad is 78 and he really looks amazing and is doing good. It is hard to see our parents sick. So hang in there and know people are praying. And keep yourself healthy too!!
