    Unhappy Mom in hospital may be going home for a while

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    My sister Christine and then Sabrina both called me this morning as I was going out the door for work. Mom is in the hospital. She had pneumonia and now, I guess because of her weakened state, she had another stroke. I'm going to fly home to Pittsburgh asap. I don't know how long I will be gone. No biking for a while, there goes my training plans, but Mom comes first. Please keep her in your prayers!

    Thank you,

    Sue

    You bet, Sue. Been through this in the last year myself---not a lot of fun. We'll be sending the good vibes.

    Best of positive vibes to you and your family.

    It's not an easy thing to come face-to-face with your parents growing older and needing you. You just have to know that you're doing the right thing when you need to do it. Here's hoping your life--and your mom's--are back to normal soon.

    I spent 5 weeks caring for my mom in '05, it was the hardest and best thing that I have experienced. I will keep you all in my thoughts. Keep us posted if you can.
