  • Hey!

    I’m actually having a really sad week. My mother had a heart attack on Saturday evening (really unexpected, no history, they still don’t know why) and collapsed. She lost oxygen to her brain for about 10 minutes. I’m trying to help my family and my dad through this time and I am finding anecdotes about people recovering (even if hard fought) but it’s hard because she is still not really responding to verbal communications. I remain hopeful that it will get better but can’t help the intrusive thoughts that the wonderful woman who raised me may be gone.

    If anyone has been in a situation similar and has advice, I am all ears!

    I apologize for the downer, and hope everyone else is doing better than I am.
