(OT) My mom's in the hospital

[Dr Midnight]

Not looking for somber condolences here, just sharing info and maybe trying to get some positive stuff aimed my way. No need for the little sad face.

Mom's been having some chest pains, and it turns out it's not just stress- it looks like she's been "on the fast track to a heart attack", so I hear. She's having angioplasty tomorrow, and perhaps a bypass could be on the horizon if things don't go well. It's not dire yet, but the last year's been filled with evidence for me that people age and eventually die, and I'm really not ready for any of it.

So, if any of you are the prayer type, and would like to do prayer type things for a complete stranger, that'd be appreciated. Otherwise, maybe you'd just like to tell me a joke or wish me luck with the job I'm trying to get. Slap me with something positive, because I could use a little Ritalin for the inner demons today.

She'll will be in my prayers Doc. I understand completely my mom has parkinsons and has been deteriorating for the past 9 years and it's the hardest thing to watch.

My very Best Wishes

Doc, my prayers are with her.

My dad had an angioplasty four years ago, it was very scary, because all my family was on holydays and only he and me were in Madrid when doctors said it was needed to do it. But all went ok, and a week after it, my dad was again at home, and he recovered without any problems, and now he does normal life...

She's in my prayers, Doc.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your mother, Doc
