<font color="blue"> Thank you all. Mom came through surgery fine. She had two clots. While the doctor worked on one, the other broke off some particles and it flowed right into where he was working, so no extra surgery needed. She'd lost blood flow to her feet, and had had rescue out last Monday first...and then again Friday when they told her again that she needed to go to hospital. (But she didn't go either time.)

Now to work on good self care, and not doing everything that family should (oooo did I say should ???) be doing together.

She'll be in hospital 2-3 days, and then home? I don't think so. She lives alone so I will see about them sending her to a nursing home for a week first.
