Please say a prayer...it's looking like my mom had another mini-stroke early this morning - they've admitted her to the hospital for tests and observation. It's not her first stroke and her health over-all has been failing. She's 82 - so I worry. I'd been hoping 2005 would be better than the end of 2004....
I'm staying in Pittsburgh tonight - Mom is up in Erie, PA - the roads are awful between here and there. She's not by herself - but an extra prayer or two would be appreciated. We'll see what the morning brings - both with mom's condition and weather-wise. I know...smoking will not do anything for her or for me - I am determined to stay SMOKE FREE!!!

boy, do i remember those lake-effect snows (i went to school at the suny college at fredonia; about 40 miles east of erie), so i can picture the roads you're talking about pretty clearly...

sorry to hear about your mom, Mary, but i'm glad to hear the determination in you to stay free. you're exactly right; smoking won't help you or her, but i know it's got to be frustrating to be so close and yet so far away. hopefully, you'll be able to make it in the morning, and then you'll have a better idea what the situation really is.

hang in there.

Mary, my mom had the same thing for years...they are called TSA's. Very scarey, but manageable with medication. also, we got her hooked up with one of the alarm/alert systems, so someone could get to her if she went down/out.

I hope she's OK...and YOU STAY STRONG!
