As some of you know, my mom had her colon removed on Nov. 30th. Initially, the surgery looked like it was successful, but then she made a turn. At first, they said she had shown all the signs of a pulmonary embolism, but they couldn't actually find the PE. Now they are saying she has an antibiotic resistant yeast infection. And now she is showing signs of bleeding internally. I have no idea what is wrong, and I am so scared. It wasn't supposed to happen like this. She was supposed to have the surgery and then be *better*, not fighting for her life. So, if anyone could possibly keep her in their thoughts, I would be so grateful. Right now, she needs all the help she can get. Those of you that pray, I am sure she would appreciate your prayers as well. While I am not religious, my mom is.
