Oh, Laura, I'm so sorry to hear this. I've been off in my own little world the alst few days trying to get all my work done for the end of term, and I missed your first message. I'm glad to hear things are looking a little better today. Please know you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers, and feel free to call me if you need to talk or vent or whatever.

Take care, we're all with you

I wish you and your mom the best, Laura.

I'm glad to hear your mom is getting better. I will hope for the best.

Oh dear - you must all have been so scared these last few days.

Laura, I've just read this thread and I'm so relieved to read that your mom is feeling better now and things are looking up for her.

Here's wishing her a speedy recovery. I hope she'll be able to go home in time for Christmas.

Laura, I'm chiming in late here too - I've been away from the boards for a couple of days. I'm glad to know that they've discovered the problem, and that your mom is already starting to improve. The unknown is often the scariest. Like others have said, please keep us updated when you can, and know that our thoughts are with you.

Laura, sorry to be chiming in late here as well, just got back in town. I'm so sorry things have been going so rough for your mom with the surgery and complications. I'm very glad and relieved that they at least found what the complication was and were able to fix it. I know she and your family still have a long way to go, but I'm relieved that it's looking more optimistic.

You and your mom will certainly be in my thoughts and prayers. Please keep us updated on how things are going.

All the best,
Jill

Laura I'm sorry I didn't see this sooner.I hope your Mom gets better and the good thing now is that they found what was wrong and she is better now.

Hope she could be out of the hospital soon.

My prayers and best wishes for you and your Mom.
Take care

Thanks again for all of the well-wishes and prayers, everyone . My mom isn't really better . . . yet. Her fever is down -- but that could be because of the antibiotics. She's also off the blood pressure stabilizing medicine and has been for two days. So that's good. They tried to wean her off the ventillator today, but she wasn't ready yet, and she is still very highly sedated. I won't really feel that well until she's off the ventillator and fully-alert. I really hope it happens soon. In the mean time, my family really appreciates all of the support .

Thanks for the update, Laura - I'd been wondering how the other night's surgery went. Hang in there - we're all still thinking of you and of your mom. Here's hoping that you'll get the Christmas present you most want this year!


Wendy

Laura, this is a very rough time you and your family are going through but I hope that things are now looking better for your mom and that she will soon be able to return home. Hang in there.

Laura: I just saw this thread. All my positive thoughts are with you and your mother.

Jude

Laura, I've been out of town, sorry to hear that things are rough right now. I will definitely keep your mom and your family in my prayers. Please continue to let us know how things are going and know we are all thinking of you.

Jana

Thanks again, everyone! My mom is slowly getting a little bit better. They took her off the ventillator yesterday, but they may have to put her back on. Her recovery is going to be *very* long, but at least she is doing better than she was last Friday. Thank you for all of your kind thoughts and prayers, and she can really use all of your thoughts/prayers as her situation finally looks at least a little better.

Laura, I will add her, and you and your sister, to my prayers. I know how precious a mother can be. Another stranger, thinking of you'all, praying for you'all. From the distance. - songbird

I hate to post again, begging for prayers and support, but my mom's ulcer broke open again, and she had a second emergency surgery today (third surgery over all). She has a very bad e-coli infection, and she needs to overcome that before they can even think of anything else. So, if you could, she'd really appreciate any more prayers and happy thoughts you'd be willing to give her. She is a very strong person, and has been figting this so hard, but I am so worried that this might be too much for even her to handle.

- Laura

<i>I'm so sorry laura, be assured there are continued prayers, never be afraid to ask for them. I think most, of us know what its like to have loved ones going through rough times. And we appreciate the prayers that any can offer for them. For what long distance support means. Be assured that even though I won't be able to check in with the boards while I'm travelling and doing Christmas things. I will keep you and your family in my prayers, and thoughts. - songbird "kate"

Laura, I'm so sorry.

You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Irene

Oh, Laura, I do hope your mom will do better today. You are both in my thoughts.
take care
