It's life, Jim, but not as we know it
Well, got the news from Mom today -- Grandma definitely does have a spot of cancer on her lung. It's not large, and due to other issues (including the fact that she just keeps getting pneumonia) the docs are opting not to treat at this time.
I think Mom has come to terms with it, but she's still going up there to spend a few days with her mother, for which I am glad. She (Mom) was really distraught when she first heard that it *might* be cancerous. Truthfully, Grandma has had so many health issues lately that I am amazed she is doing as well as she is, but she is definitely hanging in there. I don't know what the expectancy is, but all prayers are welcome. As cantankerous as she is, I imagine she'll be with us quite a few more years. :D
