I'm so very glad to hear that your mom is okay - from watching my own mom, I know the fear and difficulty that comes with those phone calls. And, of course, I agree with Poppy - moms MUST live forever. Your stories about your mom's shoes are so bittersweet, but what a touching ending to the post. It's funny how, to her, the brown shoes mean comfort and safety. (Also, did I mention you're a wonderful daughter? I'm sure you bring plenty of comfort and safety in situations like this as well!)

Your mom is incredible. I will pray for healing for her and that is not bothered by the pain. It's hard when our parents are sick. My mom is 83 and I understand the worry involved when they are not up to par. Amazing women run your family doesn’t it. Your mom is incredible.

I feel her pain over the hospital and all it's "procedures" as I just was released from there myself yesterday. I know you were a great comfort to your mom. My mom was not able to come and be with me for this surgery, but my husband (as much as he hates hospitals) stayed with me. It's not the same as having a woman around though. Praying she recovers quickly, and the report is a good one! I’m glad to hear that your mom is ok.

That is the wonder of memories, isn't it? Your Mom is such a realist. You must be so grateful that she is able to cope with these losses and carry on. What a trouper!

She is always afraid of losing them so I hold them whenever she goes for surgery or some major procedure. Then I make sure I get them to the recovery nurses as quickly as I can. Her first comment the next time we are together is always something about her glasses and being so grateful for being able to see again. For me it’s my mom’s glasses.

It's no wonder you're so positive and full of light. I can't imagine how scary that night was for you, and how hard it was, but I'm glad she's okay, and I'm glad she has you to take care of her.

I'm sure it helped her so much for you to be there with her. I know how you feel though. My mom is 83 and just fractured her ankle. It's her first broken bone and I hate it more than she does. It's the first time that I saw my mom as fragile even though she didn't. I hope everything works out when you see her doctor. Hugs!
