End of the Road

So sometime around 11 a.m. today, my mom was released from MD Anderson. We were both a bit emotional when we got in the car. "Thank you, God," were the words from her mouth.

All seems to be going well so far. She has follow-up appointments next week to remove the stitches and then with the pain management people. Other than that, we're hopeful to just visit the clinic for semi-annual check-ups.

It doesn't seem like the end of something. I guess what I mean is that there hasn't really been closure yet...at least not in the ceremonial way I would want there to be. I think I'll have to get the family involved in throwing a party or something.
