My mother passed out today while she was at the Mormon Church. She called and left me a message on my phone, but my phone is a big POS so I couldn’t really understand what the message said, “Hey George I got sick at the temple and am gonna need you to come and get the truck.” Is what I heard. I was in the lab at the time cleaning things up at work and It’s noisy in there with 20 servers running so I really couldn’t hear. I went to go call her on her cell phone and she didn’t pick up. She always picks up. I called back again, no answer.
I went to go talk to my brother (I work for him.) and ask him if he heard from mom. He told me the whole story. My heart sank. I’ve been sick the past few days with a sinus infection and this just added on to all of the shit I was feeling inside today.
She is staying overnight at the hospital tonight, she is feeling good and in good spirits, they just want to make sure everything is OK. Thanks for everyone’s concern, this is really hard for me to talk about because this is definitely my worst nightmare. One of my friends just called to check on the situation and I broke down on the phone talking to her. I’m fighting back tears right now typing this… Hopefully everything comes out OK in the end.
Please pray for my mom, she has done enough praying for everyone else in the past.
…It’s time someone returned the favor.

Definitely keeping your mom in my prayers. And you should have told your loyal readers you were headed to Jack’s … I live/work in Nashville and the catering mgr. there owes me a free lunch. Could’ve hooked you up.

I know how it is, my Dad has been having problems lately and it is VERY unnerving. Be strong, she needs that from you now.
She will be in my prayers and so will you.

I am sending good vibes to your Mom and to you. Hang in there George, she’ll be ok. Maybe they need to turn up the A/C in the temple!

I’m just a stranger and a lurker (a Mormon one, at that), but I’ll for sure pray for your mom. I hope she’s outta there in no time!

I’m not the prayer sort, But I’m sending her (and you) my best wishes.
Keep strong.

George, I had to come out of lurk mode to tell you that your Mom is in my thoughts and prayers, I know exactly what a scary thing this is. Be strong, you can do it.

I don’t normally pray but I have been for your mom, I even asked some friends who are avid prayers to add her in to theirs. I’m sure she will be ok and it was just one of those things.
Take care!

Lurker here, too. Big hugs, George. That has to be so very scary. I’m glad she was able to get help right away and is in go0d hands now. I will definitely pray for her - and for you.

It’ll all turn out to be okay, G. I’ll be sending all my positive vibes and love to you. Feel free to call me whenever you want. I won’t mind the silence.

George,,,,,,,,,,,there is true caring and support for you and your family on this site. I will pray for her to be sure. She must be the most special woman ever. After all, look at her groovy son. Take care of all of you,,,,,,,,

One of my worst fears too. Keep your spirits high, and I’ll keep your mom in my prayers.

It should never be a burden to pray for someone else. I think the prayers of strangers are very powerful to God. I will send up some prayers for your mom, Dorj, and ask him to give you peace, too.
love and hugs!
