Mom X

I was going to post about today's Fun Show -- I may yet, Tam's not the only one to have found something kewl -- but something's come up: my Mother, the famous Mom X, collapsed at an intermediate airport, flying to visit siblings. Word is she's stable now but so far, only Big Sis X has managed to actually speak with her, rather than nurses or the doctor. I may be flying to the Mistake On The Lake tomorrow, depending on what I find out in the next few minutes. I'm pretty sure one of Mom's sisters was flying with her.

I make no bones about being a little tone-deaf to faith. Mom X, on the other hand, takes a deep and abiding comfort in hers. If you pray, if you could spare a word for her, I know it will do her good. I'm going to give it a try myself -- at the very least, it won't do any harm.

UPDATE: Looks likely I'll be heading her way Monday, unless the docs decide to send her back to Indy that day. Baby Bro is flying up tomorrow. Medically, she's stable.

    Sorry, to hear that, Bobbi. Hoping it's nothing serious.

    As a Discordian, I promise to not pray for your mother. But I'll wish y'all the best of luck.

    Y'all are always in my prayers anyway, but I'll make an extra effort in this case. Hope all is well soon.

    Thoughts and best wishes to your mom, you, and your family.

    Prayers too, if I can figure out where to plug in the dongle.

    Try and keep your chin up, beautiful.

    I don't know that I could prayer very well, but if you're feeling the need to try I can try with you. I at least know I can hold you all in my thoughts as if you were my own family, so I'm starting on that now.

    I suspect just the prayer itself is sign enough of faith, and of course mine are offered.

    You're all on the prayer list. Hope it's just vertigo or head rush or something like that.
