Mama Jane
So many fun things to write about, but they will have to wait. As I write this my mom is in the hospital, in Grand Junction, CO. They were up in Aspen when apparently she began to get short of breath and her heart was pounding at 160/min plus. We got the call from my dad at 6:45 this morning that they were headed by ambulance down to Grand Junction, to get her out of the high altitude. She would have been taken by life flight but the weather was too bad and it was impossible. Apparently this is all happening in the storm of the century up there. We are awaiting further word on what exactly this is. There is some speculation on a heart attack, but nothing conclusive yet. She is under medical sedation and has been intibated, and a machine is breathing for her. She is currently in the ICU. So if you can spare a prayer for my mama today, it would be so appreciated. I'll post again when we get any word.
