I love my mother but she makes me crazy!!!

She called me to tell me she has scheduled another hip replacement surgery. I knew this was coming and at this point, on some level, it's kinda routine. I'll save the panic and the worry for the night before.

In the same email she says she's scheduled to fly out to the Mayo clinic for an evaluation in two weeks. WHAAAAT!!!! WTF is she talking about? Mayo clinic for what?! I nearly burst into tears. I almost went straight to the phone to call her and ask what's happening. But, I did manage to pull myself from the brink of panic and realize that it's probably just an evaluation of the nerve damage that idiot orthopedist did on the penultimate hip surgery.

I'll still be calling her once 7am rolls around just to be sure.

Mom update - all's well

*whew* I was right (or at least my logic mind was right) the Mayo Clinic thing is just a second (actually fourth) opinion about her hips and the nerve damage she's suffered.
