about this when she went in .
But now its three days ago and she is very ill and the doctors
are telling us that this can go both way s...she is 66 years old ...
they hold her a sleep and she is connected with all kinds of machines
and wires all over ...strange to she my mom like this ., today they called and told she was going from this world to another ...but she is a fighter so she is still with us ..:O) and still she is status Q

so tonight I pray ...and light candles ...and hug my
children ...:O)

all the best Skarpi Iceland .

After my mom had heart surgery, she had trouble waking up. She'd had a couple of tiny strokes, but the doctors didn't figure it out for almost a week. She woke up, although late, and didn't have major problems. Seeing her hooked up to all those machines, so quiet and pale, was the most frightening thing I've ever seen. I remember how lost I felt, how afraid. It's not the same thing you're going through, but maybe enough to sympathize with you.

Love and hugs,
Jeri

Your mother is still a young woman, she will come through this. You are going through some fear,uncertainty and doubt right now, it's only natural. Believe me, she is in great hands, these guys know what they are doing. I assure you, this day next week your attitude will be different and your fears will have vanished. Look forward to a full life with your mother.

In thoughts right now through a very concerning time.

Thanks for checking in, Skarpi. So glad to hear she is awake and her heart is okay. I know we're each different, but I had a little trouble with my lungs after heart surgery. Deep breathing, singing, playing a Native American flute, or even a harmonica can all help to regain lung function after being down so long, providing there are no other problems. Your mom is young and it sounds as though she is strong and as she's a grandma, I can tell you, from experience, she's got strong motivation to stick around.:-) Patience, thanks givings, candles, and Light all coming your way and to your mom.
