Hi everyone,
This morning my father called to tell me my mom is in the hosital. "Nothing serious," he says, "just some internal bleeding." OMG! Nothing serious?! My mom is 85, but internal bleeding at any age IS something serious.

The drs said she lost 3-4 qts of blood, but they are replenishing it faster than she is losing it now. They don't know why or from where the blood is leaking, but they think it might be intestinal. They hope to find out in the AM.

Pls send some positive thoughts and prayers her way. She is a sweetheart of a woman living on the "peaceful side of the Smokeys."
Thank you.

    How frightening! I will of course, keep your Mom and your Dad in my prayers and thoughts! As well as you!

    I hopet hat they find the source of the bleeding soon, and that it can be easily corrected.

    Big comforting hugs for you all.

    Thank you Stef, CR, and Jackie...
    it means so much that my dear friends are coming through for my mom. My mom and I are great believers in the power of prayer (especially my mom :)).

    dmc...it goes without saying that Healing Thoughts are not only with your sweet mom, but of course with you as well as you fret and worry over her. This is truly what Family is all about; it doesn't have to be Cancer related~ WE are related through cyber-space and our shared journey.

    Keep us posted....

    Hugs,

    I just got an update from my little brother. My mom is on some kind of meds (my father did not know what) and my mom seems to be handling them okay. I still don't know what caused the bleeding, nor where the bleeding originated. I hope to know more in the AM.

    I am going to bed now, just in case I need to leave on short notice. In the meantime, my mom will awake to some cheery flowers, it's all I can do for now. I feel so helpless.

    You are indeed my dear friends, I knew I could count on you. Thank you.
    I'll keep you updated, goodnight.

    A Good Night to You, and your Mother
    This is encouraging news, DMC. Thank you for updating us. Your mother knows that you love her, and that is helping her--it is giving her strength. My own mom taught me this.

    I'll be keeping you and your mother in prayers tonight, try to rest. and keep us posted.

    Prayers coming your way. For strength for you and all your family, and an answer to what caused the bleeding. And just because your Mom is older, don't think the worst. Some of those "oldsters" are tougher than us youngsters! Post when you can. hugs, Cindy
