My mother and I have both been doing some testing. A tumor was found in my mothers Colon. It was removed.  It was malignant. Next step is stress tests to see if she can handle a major surgery. I know I need to be strong for her, so I am hiding and crying away from her. I am so scared and frightened. My mother has always been my hero, my best friend. Its been just me and her against the world. Even as I write these words, I am again in tears. I can't seem to stop them. Please pray for my mother.............

Thanks for listening... Cindy

The fires continue to burn here. May be till end of month before they are in control......

Colon cancer is the number #2 killer...............

LAKE COUNTY Road crews in Lake County are hard at work, despite a workplace advisory issued Friday by the California Division of Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA) for all of Northern California because of smoke in the air from wildfires. More than 800 fires in California. I have not seen the sun shine in 8 long days. Here in Northern California one can not see the largest and oldest natural lake in North America "Clear Lake".
