Mom Update Again

[mamadeb]

I spoke to my brother.

The procedure went well. One artery was 75% blocked - there's a stent there now. Others were 30% and they're not worried about them. She'll spend the night there, of course, and be home tomorrow, to go on bed rest.

I'm exhausted. Utterly exhausted. I'm scared about a three hour drive I have to make tomorrow - or maybe I'll push it off until Thursday when the weather is better.

(But I got to meet my stepfather's granddaughter Nikki and her very sweet girlfriend, who came to visit my mother. Because I have a wonderful mother whom everyone loves. And I liked meeting these two very much.)

Good thoughts for your mom!

I'm so glad the news has, so far, and cautiously optimistic, been so good. May it continue in that vein (as it were :-) only even better yet.

I'm so glad things went well for your mom, and she recovers quickly! please try to get some rest before you drive - if you can, waiting until Thursday makes sense.

and yay! for meeting cool relatives.

*hugs* I'm glad your mom's doing well. My mom had to have a stent put in and she recovered well, and I'm pretty sure she doesn't live nearly as healthily. She does bruise easily now, though, which if it's a concern for your mom, I'm sure the doctors will warn her.

I'm glad your mother's OK.

Glad to hear that the news is good for your Mom.
Waiting until Thursday to leave sounds like a very good idea. It's only supposed to be cold on Thursday which is better to drive 3 hours in than the snow predicted for tomorrow.

Glad to hear it all went well, and I hope the healing continues. Stay safe yourself.
