Nov 22/07

Well, very little stitching has been done here of late. My mom had a hysterectomy last week and ended up back in hospital with complications. Her kids have been at her bedside all day, every day as we wait for her to get better. We have counted 12 different doctors at her bedside this week and a lot of amazing nursing staff who have definitely earned their pay looking after her various ailments (and there have been many!). Mom has been an amazing patient to the point where she has been apologizing to the nursing staff because she is making so much work for them because she is so weak at the moment. Oh! It has been a week!

So sorry she is having complications but sounds like she is getting great care and so good that she has all of you to watch out for her too. Hope she is better soon.

Oh my goodness, how difficult for everyone! My mom also didn't go through her hysterectomy without problems - it's such a major surgery, we tend to forget how great a shock to the system it can be. My positive thoughts and wishes for a full recovery go out to you!
