Cross your fingers

After a very painful set of operations, my mother is finally well and has recovered. She can walk with only a slight limp, without the aid of crutches. She will be returning home sometime soon and I hope the quality of her life improves now that she does not have to depend on anyone for even the most basic tasks. She will be walking on her own after 7 painful years of hobbling, crying in pain and feeling helpless. I can't wait to see her again.
