To the RESCUE!

News FLASH:  Mom had a kidney stone!  Mom was in the hospital! Mom had surgery!

Objective: Get home to welcome her out of surgery as quick as humanly possible, and clean the house.

Impediment: Living in Idaho Falls and Rexburg.  Three hour drive.

Nonetheless: KK and I wrapped up all duties and sped (within the law of course...) home.

Arrival: We drove down the street, noticing stacked cars...

Entrance:  Mom was on the couch surrounded by every immediate family member who lived within 5,000 miles.

Result: Reinforcement that we love Mom, and we want to serve.  Some may think overkill, I believe it was a sacred moment of support for me.  Still ruminating.

I hope she is feeling better. I have known a few cases of kidney stones around here, too. Crazy stuff. You guys are so great!
