Mamma Mia!

The movie was fabulous! My mom, sister, and I had an impromptu girls' night out and decided we would give it a shot. We could sing along with most of the songs, which is always a plus for the "Smith" girls, and we laughed out loud through the entire movie. We actually don't get out often (just the girls) without the rest of the crew, so it was nice to do something together that the three of us all enjoyed.

It ended up serving as a great distraction the night before my mom went to see her specialist to get the results of her "pet scan". (No, it doesn't involve man's best friend.) Apparently live (possibly cancerous) cells love sugar. So during the pet scan, they injected sugar into her body and watched to see where it went and if it attracted to any cells. Hers did clump up around the suspicious spot on her lungs. So, the next step is to have a needle biopsy so that the doctor can determine exactly what type of cells we are dealing with and where to go from here. This biopsy is scheduled for next week. Please continue to pray for her healing as well as comfort and strength as we all wait in limbo for the results.

What a perfect song for your blog!!
That was such a great time. We should do it more often. It makes me laugh just thinking about the movie.
