9/12 - feeling thankful

I feel thankful today in the midst of all the chaos.

What if this was meant to happen? Like how some things just can’t be avoided.

But the way I’m still lucky is that it happened earlier before my trip, so I could be there with my mom. If I look at the situation as a stand alone thing, I do feel lucky that I was with her.

I feel thankful that the scans did end up showing the stones because it would have been worse if they just removed the gallbladder and the stones were still there. Then she would have had complications.

I feel thankful that my mom’s surgery went by good today and there were no complications.

And now for tomorrow, I just pray that all the complications are avoided, and the surgery happens smoothly, so she can come home in peace. I pray that she recovers fast and everything is back to normal and she’s at peace.

I know the universe is with me. I know the universe is on my side. I know I can take care of my mom on my own.
