Now it's real

Yes it is.
Going to a heart class does that to a person.
Makes it real.
Makes it scary.
Not that it wasn't scary already.
But now we know what's going to happen.
Kind of.
We won't really know until Monday.
Until 2 days from now.
Until then, we're playing basketball.
We're ice skating.
We'll eat.
We'll play with friends.
Go to church.
Have fun with Mamma and Papa and Gayle.
But then it will be real.
On Monday.
We'll be surrounded in prayer.
And we know it's common.
To have this kind of surgery.
But as a friend said
It only happens once with your mom.
My mom.
Love you mom.
