On Friday, my mother suffered a heart attack, on Saturday she was airlifted to Vegas.
I've talked to her every day on the phone with no indication that there was anything seriously wrong.
Today, my stepdad came home to get some things and he tells me, my mother is dying.
Her heart valve started leaking out, inoperable.
The treatment she is undergoing in the next 48 hours, if it works, is only to buy her some time.

I'm not handling this well at all.

I would be totally beside myself if I were in your shoes. I hope everything works out well. I'm so so so sorry. Moms are one of those gifts we all get ONE of, and they are so so so special.



You and your mom will be in my thoughts.

Be safe.

I'm struggling to find any words- such sad news!


I'm just so sorry - it's like getting hit with a ton of bricks with everything happening so suddenly and unexpectedly.

Sending just heaps of vibes to your mom, to you, to the whole family!

I know you are close to your mother. I'm hoping for the best for you and your family.

You are going to Vegas to be near her??
