Super User Darren. Posted May 23, 2015 Super User Posted May 23, 2015 I know many of you here pray, and send positive thoughts in times of emergency.... My Mom suffered a stroke, pretty severe, this morning and the prognosis, though early, is not good. I'm the youngest of 5 kids, I'm 45, almost 46. My Mom was doing great the other day, and I hugged her, rubbed her shoulders, told her how much I loved her. Today, she is intubated, has severe damage to parts of her brain that controls language, speech, understanding. Emotions have been up and down and down again. I'm just sharing this to ask for prayers for my Mom, my Dad, who's "okay" but he's not processed it fully just yet, I think. They've been married for 63 years, I believe. This is a shock to him. She's a wonderful woman, has put up with me her whole life, LOL. Thanks everyone in advance. Darren Quote

You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers, and I sincerely hope that you will able to give her many more hugs in the future. Probably no reason for me to mention that this would be a good time to give Dad some of the same as I am sure you already have. 1 Quote

My eldest sis was with him last night, he didn't sleep much... And thanks to everyone for your thoughts and prayers. I know so many have gone through this with a family member and can empathize with me. Will know more today as they are looking for my Mom to be able to respond with a thumbs up following reduction of her sedatives, and before removing her breathing tube. Quote
