In Barcelona: mother's operation

I'm in Barcelona since yesterday to accompany my mother in a eye surgery, which she has to undergo urgently. She has been suffering from heavy pain and humour distillitation in one of her eyes for the last two months. Doctors say she needed a new surgery to replace the cornea since it is unrecoverable --the diagnosis was permanent edema-- in its present condition.

This is the result of a bad catarats surgery she had 5 years ago. We will stay here until Christmas eve if everything goes smoothly with her operation, as I expect it will be if no further complications appear after the procedure.

I'll like to be in an island far away from the rest of the world right now. I'm living one of these moments in which one can't see a clear path to go on with your life.
