Ok. More bad news.
Monday night my mother and I were out to dinner with her most wonderful boyfriend, when suddenly she began to make a horrendous noise. We started freaking out, asking if she was ok. Her eyes rolled up and closed, she began foaming at the mouth and passed out. We called the paramedics and they revived her. Yesterday we went to the hospital for an MRI and they said she had a severe seizure.
My grandmother began having seizures when she was 56, my mom is 51. My grandma had two large brain tumors, and many tiny mets. My grandma died when she was 62 from four large brain tumors. She had around 15 surgeries to remove them, but they kept coming back. The doctors are saying there is a very high chance that the cancer has spread to my mom's brain, not her heart or lungs like they had thought earlier. She's going tonight for an EEG and a CAT scan. We'll know results by next week.
I'm not afraid. I'm not upset. I'm not sad. I'm happy. My mom is alive right now. That is what matters. If she dies, I am ready; and I'm making the most of every last moment I have with her. Of course I want her to live, but I have to plan for the worst.
Keep my mother in your thoughts please.

In other, much less sad, news; I've been in talks with five bands in the area to producing/master/record their demo EPs this summer. I'm doing it free of charge until 2010, where I'll be charging $25 a track. I'm doing it free of charge just to get a portfolio ready, and to put my name out there. Hope these bands make it big
