Thankyou Doug and Cem....

My mom has had 2 strokes one minor one and a serious one that led to me caring for her for well over a year...The type of stroke she had and probably Asher is the only person to have a full understanding of this but it was "ischemic" and it occured in the pons section of the brain...Thats what i remember the nurse telling me when it happened....I dont know where the pons is but the nurse told me it was fairly deep in the brain...

So when i got the call saying she was on the way to the hospital, left the keys in the car and needed me to get it i was paniced...I ran next door to the new neighbor and asked for a ride. When we got to where the car was at the Fire Station as she had stopped there cause shes had a head ache over the last few days...Anyway i remember something...The Fire Station, they will always, always, always refer you to the hospital...Its a liability issue..Once i thought of that i was a bit more relaxed....Still a concern though...

Shes got a docotrs appointment i will be taking her to at 12:00 tomorrow...Shes had headaches over the last 2 or 3 days and her blood pressure is high....To think of losing my mom scares me i want her to live to see me become a good photographer and accomplish some other goals. These are things my dad didnt get to see....

She is home though and shes requested that i keep close by which shes never done before EVER....That has me a bit scared...I'm sure this is all fine its just a lingering head ache and she is going to be fine...Thankyou for the kind thoughts....

Erik............

Erik, I pray that your mom gets well soon. She needs you as much as you need her. This is the time for
you to have the strength to think straight and do the right things that need to be done.

Your mom is counting on you. Stay strong.

Besy wishes to you and your mom.

Hi Erik
I can't pray as I don't know how to, but my thoughts are with you and your mum, wishing and hoping the best for the 2 of you.
What ever happen, I am sure that you've and will do the best as you can.
Keep on going a god son and good man.
And as Cem said, take care, but I'm sure you do.

Kind regards

Keeping a close eye on her blood pressure we just got back from the local Fire Department where they took it...Its 170/90 so at this point its okay but given the head aches and that its been high enough for her to go to the hospital i will be watching her very closely....We live about a 2 blocks (Country blocks) from the Fire Station which is manned 24/7 so thats a good thing....
