Behnam tells the group about his mother's recent health scare. She had recurring facial swelling that turned out to be a blocked salivary gland, but an ultrasound also revealed a tumor in her thyroid. She had a biopsy the next day, and they are awaiting results, expected in about 10 days, which will fall on Christmas Day or Boxing Day via the NHS app. Behnam drove her to the hospital and is very worried, especially since she has no symptoms of thyroid problems. The group expresses hope that the tumor is benign.
