..
My conversation with the medical team went something like this =
.
" yes nurse...What??? I can hear you VERY clearly errr.... what?! ...what?! oh no...my mother has what??? ...what??? Can you spell that...what-what??? -what!!! ...let me google it!"
.
the 'what' is actually = Streptococcus viridans
(definitely NEW words for me...much more difficult
than Christian Louboutin...for sure!!!)
.
Some of you might have heard that my mommie dearest was admitted to the hospital for about 7 dreadful days! err...Good or bad news first??? bad news is that Streptococcus Viridans 'thingie' is attacking her heart!!! the good news is that she is fighting that 'thingie' now... Somewhat compelled to share some of very personal life that have been stirring for the past several days, perhaps crack the door open a bit more & be more personal in the blogland???
Glad to say that my dear mother is now out of the hospital and in the best environment possible for healing & recovering; surrounded by her family, friends and her beloved pets filtering in and out insuring that she is not alone. Home sweet home (& NO MORE hospital food!!!)and we have seen her sweet smiles again… even heard some bitchy remarks addressed to my dad…(her usual target!) that’s real good news people! She is baccck & bitchin'! Still, it will be quite a long journey before she is fully recovered… She is continuing very intense treatments for the next 10 days. Above all, she remains in good spirits and continues to handle this very tough situation with grace! errr…well...most of the time at least…~Thank you, everyone, through your prayers and well wishes.

Hope your mom gets well soon, dear! Stay strong :)
Sending good thoughts your mom's way. I hope the snippy comments keep coming to show she is getting stronger day by day. Take good care of yourself and know all your blog friends are with you in spirit.
I'm glad she's recovering. I know, it's not easy to have a sick mom. Cherish all the time with your family. I found that the bright side of having an illness in the family is how it brings the family together and really makes you appreciate the ordinary bits of family life. I hope she gets well soon, and make sure you take care of yourself as well!
illness is allways dreadful! Hope your Mom will be better soon, take care both of you :)
Aah i hope she feels much better soon!
Those photos are so great!
Thank you for the comment you left on my blog :)
I do hope your Mum gets better & that she has a speedy recovery.
Take care,

Stay strong and be there for eachother. Life's too short.
Oh no! I'm sorry your mother has been sick, and I hope she gets much better. I'm sure she feels very lucky to have her family support her though!

My thoughts are with your family
I'm so glad to hear about your mom's recovery. Hospitals always seem to make the experience worse, so I'm glad she's in a better environment!
warm thoughts to your mom in her recovery.
you poor thing, my thoughts are with you right now. parents being sick is always scary and never easy, i so hope she is doing better now. keep us updated xx
Happy to hear she is getting better. No good having a sick love one especially a mom.
oh i am so so sorry to hear of your mum being unwell! nothing worse than having family members or loved ones sick - the feeling of helplessness (can't spell?) is so hard i think. i hope she gets better soon and i pray for you all :)

V word is arcures...I hoped she is 100% cured!
i wish her a speedy recovery and hope that your family is strong for her in this difficult time!
Oh gosh I do hope she's continuing to fight and is regaining her strength each day... it's really good that your family is there for her. I think that's one of the fastest ways for anyone to get better. When they feel loved. You take care of yourself too ya?
