My mom phoned me this morning, and she told me that she was going to the hospital to get some tests done. The Carbon Dioxide levels in her blood were high, and the Oxygen levels were kinda low, so the doctors wanted her to come in for more tests, and some special care. That is all I knew this morning.

This evening, my grandmother called me, and told me that my mother had been transferred to a different hospital by ambulance to get the proper tests done, and that some of the tests showed up as affirmative. The doctors believe that my mom has blood clots in her lungs. This is potentially very dangerous.

My mom will be in the hospital for the next few days, under the care of doctors, and a very cool nurse, as well as my dad and my grandmother (who was a nurse when she was younger). She will be receiving blood-thinning drugs by IV, and is also receiving oxygen, as the oxygen wasn't reaching her brain properly.

My mother is a fighter and an optimist. I think she'll be fine. But it's scary knowing that she's got something so serious.

Please pray for her, send her good thoughts and well-wishes, whatever you believe in.

Thank you for your concern and prayers.

I'll keep her in mind, and i hope she does well. I know how scarey that can be as daughter, too. Make sure to get lots of love from friends and family!

Well, I've put my best friend's family on alert (they live two blocks away from my mom), and my grandparents are there, as well as mom's friends.

I am being taken care of by family and friends here...
 
all the best to your mum. May she recover more than fully and draw strength from both her recovery and the enforced rest this has given her.

Blessings in Love and Light,

Drake
 
I'm SO sorry, Vix. You're just having those weeks. If you wanna talk, you just have to click a button.

I will. I'll pray for you as well.
 
Honey, I'm thinking of you and your family, and I am seconds away if you need one of those PM's...and anything else, too. :heart:

I read somewhere else where you mentioned your mother's situation yesterday. As a result, I want you to know that I remembered her, you and your family when I went to Church last night and that, before leaving, I lit a candle and said a prayer for you all. So, here in St Anthony Catholic Church, Florence SC, a candle burns and its light is a prayer for your mother's recovery and for you and yours. God bless you and keep you. AMEN!!!
