Remember Tootsie?
She got married last July.
We've grown apart recently due to her deteriorating health. She hasn't been up to attending play dates which I totally understand. I haven't bothered her because I didn't want to be a pest. She was having gallbladder issues and she found a lump in her neck and a lump in her breast. I heard through the grapevine that she was okay and feeling good and I was looking forward to chillin' with her again soon.
Today I got terrible news.
Tootsie's mom just had brain surgery to remove most of a tumor. Apparently, it's Stage 4 so they're just basically buying her time. Her mom is the sweetest lady ever! She's full blooded German with the thick accent to prove it. I feel just terrible. Not just because of her mom, but because I haven't been a good friend lately.
Tomorrow I'm baking her some goodies and bringing them over. Even if she doesn't feel like she needs a shoulder to cry on, I'm going to show her she has one (well, two technically). She doesn't deserve this.

Wow poor girl has been through some rough times lately. You are a great friend!
