Hello friends and partners,

 

My mom went to the ER Saturday and was admitted for a multi-day stay.  Long story short, as some will remember, she was diagnosed with lung cancer before/during the 2009 Runoffs, was treated successfully, and has done very very well until now - seems to have caught a "bug" and fever, decided not to take her meds (or food or water) because of nausea, which resulted in her first ambulance ride - but is now stable and improving, and hopefully all will be fine in a few days.  Taking antibiotics, fluids, etc. 

 

I don't need anything from you guys/gals except your patience on my being a little spotty on communication the past few days and the next few days, and the deadlines slipping 3-7 days on the jobs in process.

 

My email and everything else is backed up, so you can help me by dropping any well wishes HERE if you feel the need, which will maybe keep the thread bumped periodically while I work through this.

 

Thanks in advance!  I'll let you know if and when things change!

 

-MB

Thoughts and prayers headed your way. A lot of patience, good outlook, and consistent communication with the docs will all pay off.

Get well soon Mrs. Bennett.  Indians season is just around the corner.  This might be their year.

Thanks all!  We've got her broken out of Medical Jail and back home, but her mobility/self-sufficiency is not restored, so I'll still have a foreseeable capacity reduction.  Thanks for the well wishes and patience!

Glad to hear your mom's on the mend.  I'm just down the road if you need anything.  Just drop me a text.  In the meantime, I'll keep you and your family in my prayers.
