So, my lovely GCSG, for those of you who don't know, this is Turtle, and lately I have been going through some really really tought times. About three weeks ago, my mom was diagnosed with a rare type of cancer that resides only in the muscles that you don't voluntarily move (such as organs), called Leiomayosarcoma (may be spelled wrong). Now, the problem with this cancer is that it can spread or it can go dormant for 20 years and pop up again. She found out she had this cancer when she had her uterus removed and there was a tumor the size of a baby's head in there (sorry for the visual). So, on top of having a record-setting tumor for the hospital, she also has a reaaaally rare type of cancer. Thats not the worst of it. A few days ago, my mom found a lump on her breast (pardon my french), so on Tuesday we went to the doctor's office (I was also really sick so I went too (Technically speaking, I'm still sick)) and the doctor said that it was a 4-5cm mobile tumor and that they could remove it because it hadn't attached to any lymph nodes. My mom was worried sick about it because she thought she might also have breast cancer. Information on that is pending. But wait, there's more. Today, my mom went to the cancer clinic (she left before I woke up for school), and they told her some really really really bad news. Really bad news. My mom has maybe less than a year to live, unless of course the chemotherapy works, which it probably won't because chemotherapy doesn't work on her type of cancer. Many other methods don't work on it either. Its a cut-it-out type of cancer. I'm really in a particularily awful mood right now, so if I seem a little bit... Off... This is why. Sorry for not being here for so long, but as you can see, I've had my hands full.
Jya,
Turtle. *hugs GCSG*

`Aine Chievious Poor Turtle and Turtle's mom. D: I'm sorry. I hope that things will somehow get better for you. This sort of thing sucks horribly. D: Indeed it does. I hope things get better too, or I'm really going to miss my mom, even with all the crap that comes with her.

...I'm not sure what all to say other than "That sucks" and "I hope it somehow works out better than what they're saying"...

I'm praying for your family! And I'm going to ask my youth group and my church youth group to pray for you guys as well. Hopefully you can experience a miracle.
