Mom's Bronchoscopy Day

Obviously when you get a transplant of any kind there are risks, serious risks that well no one wants to admit...  In my mom's case she is having trouble shaking the aspergillis fungus that is in her lungs...  It's really been rough for her, all the while my kids, wife and I are aware of the dangers but trying to go on like it's no biggie and well, just generally waiting for the right combination of drugs and will power to knock this thing on it's ass...
Video quality is poor but, well my phone is a cheap chinese phone what can I say...  When I get an Iphone some day you'll get fantastic HD images of my life.. WOO HOO!!!, actually it's quite alright, the idea is not to show you all the gore in my life but to share with you a moment which I found difficult.. In this case, sitting next to my mom at a bronchoscopy appointment knowing full well that it should have taken 3 hours not the 9 that we had to endure... When things go well it's quick and easy, but this time we were told to wait for the doctor and that means something is wrong...
