I know that dosen't sound like a big deal, but for those who don't know, my Mom has lung cancer. She's had 10 chemo treatments and is on a 4 or 5 month break from chemo, after which she'll start something called immuno-therapy.
So, anyway, during all this stuff, my Mom has not been well, and not driving. The other day we went for a short ride down the street for a couple of blocks, and Mom said she didn't have a problem.
So tomorrow, she is going to take me to the store, and I will go in and do the shopping while Mom waits in the car. While she feels good enough to drive, walking very far makes her winded and so she dosen't feel comfortable walking around the store.
Its a step in the right direction, though.

Me, too, @Tina30219 ! In a few months she will start a treatment called immuno-therapy.

Nice that Mom will drive now and feels okay to do so.
I hope you have a very nice time shopping Stacey.
I gathered your Mom had cancer of some kind when you had spoken about the treatments before. I pray for her complete healing Stacey.
