By all accounts, my mom will be fine, but this is really upsetting to me. My mom and I are really close. Some of you will remember that she actually came to Mexico with me for my band surgery and slept on a sofa bed in my hospital room the night of my surgery so that I wouldn't be alone and she could be there if I needed anything. She's the kind of mom who would literally give me the shirt off of her back if I needed it (fortunately, these days, there is a chance it might fit..), and who has been one of my biggest and most constant supporters in life in general, and certainly through this process. So, the thought of anything happening to her is just extremely upsetting to me, and I'm so glad that she seems to be OK and receiving good care.
With my mom on our trip to New Mexico over Labor Day Weekend
My mom reads so many of your blogs (she especially loves Roo, Sarah, The New Me, Cara, Amy and Angie) and posts once in a while as "Kathy." I know that she follows a lot of bandster blogs (without being a signed-up follower) and is always happy to see how well everyone is doing. So, please keep her in your thoughts right now and send her your prayers, best wishes, good vibes, etc. for a speedy recovery. It can't hurt, and it's bound to help at least a little. :)

My prayers are with your mom.
I will be keeping you and your mother in my prayers.
Oh, Catherine - I am so sorry to hear that she is sick. Please know that I am thinking of both of you and your family. I have read and heard so much about your wonderful Mother and it saddens me to know that she is in the hospital. However, she is getting the best care, I am sure! <3
Sending good thoughts to you and your mom!
{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}} to you, Catherine and to Kathy. Praying all goes well and there will just be good news from here on.

Sending best wishes and good thoughts to you and your mom, Catherine. We're all here for you both.
*hugs* Our relationships with our moms are complicated and wonderful, and I can't even imagine how worried you must be about your mom right now. I hope that the next few days bring you promising news and that she's home and on the mend soon!
Kathy, while you're recuperating, go read my blog so I get to be on your list of favourites! I'm a hoot! And I spell things the crazy Canadian way!
Sending good thoughts to you and your family! My Dad had a heart attack at 48 (he's now 63). You're right to be encouraged that she's getting good care. They can do so much for heart disease. I hope she continues to improve quickly!!
I'm sending good thoughts for you and your Mom. 8-)
Thank goodness she is doing well, she is so in my thoughts and heart. I am glad she enjoys reading my ramblings! Lots of love and support to you too, Cath, this is undoubtedly super stressful and I'm here for ya if you need me! xoxox
I'm sending loads of good vibes to your mama.
Sending hugs and thoughts to you and your mum....hopefully she will be back on her feet soon. It's always scary when you hear news of loved ones getting sick etc and even harder when there is distance between you. I quite often get teary because someone at home is unwell and I cannot be there (one of the reasons I am heading home in the next few months!). I had no idea that your mum followed my blog...I am glad she enjoys it and can follow our journeys too....I tell my mum about all the blogs I read and the girls that are ispiration, including you!
I'm sending thoughts and prayers for you, your mom, and your family!
Hoping she has a speedy recovery, and will be full of good health. What a lovely relationship you have with her.
Oh darl,
I will be thinking of your mum every day. When I was reading the start of your post my first thought was : Catherine will be overwrought because she's so close to her mum. She's one in a million - so yes my thoughts are with you and get well thoughts are with her.
PS Thank you so much for your beautiful comment on my blog re: my goal post. My heart just melted.
Stay safe beautiful Catherine xxx
So sorry to hear about your mum....it is really scary isn't it. My mum has been battling cancer for the last few years and it is so tough to see her go through it or imagine a world without her.....sending wishes your way
Healing vibes for your mum coming straight away.
I hope she gets better soon.
Oh Catherine, between losing my dad in May and now with my mom in the hospital with a staph infection, I can't go a minute without thinking about how prescious our parents are! I will keep your mom and you, in my thoughts and prayers! Please keep us updated on her progress.
Absolutely keeping her in my prayers... she has been and will continue to be an amazing support for you!!! Hang in there.
Sending you and your mom love!! Its so scary when things like this happen. At least in the hospital they can monitor her. Sometimes we forget to take care of ourselves because we are busy taking care of others. I hope mom is released soon and can get back to normal.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery for mom! Sounds like she will be fine.
A small PSA:
Heart problems are usually only a concern to men, but they are a HUGE silent danger to women...and many of us don't know it, and our doctor's don't test us!
I'm sending all my good karma your way that your mom is feeling better soon! You two look so cute together in that photo!
I had a similar scare with my mom earlier this year. Now, she is healthier than ever! I'm facing North and sending good thoughts your way.
You and your mom will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. I hope all is resolved soon. Keep us posted.
Sending lots of healing and positive vibes to your dear mother!

Oh no! Good vibes X a million! I hope she is feeling better very soon!
I totally understand your relationship with your mom because I am that close with my mom also. I am keeping he and your entire family in my prayers. I also know that the strength of her love for her will be one of the best healing forces she has.
Sending out some good thoughts for your mom. It's one of the reason's I am losing this weight-so my kids don't have to see me die young. And yes, us mom's would give anything to our kids. It's just how we are.

Sorry to hear about your Mom - I just prayed for her.
I'm a medical assistant and I've worked for a cardiologist for the last 2 years and I've learned A LOT about heart disease. The great majority of the time with proper treatment and long-term follow-up people live a long happy life! If you need any help deciphering medical "talk" let me know! :)
You are both in my prayers. Give us an update. I think all of us are worried about you and your wonderful mom.
Catherine: I hope your mom makes a super-speedy recovery and is out of the hospital and feeling great soon.
If Mom is reading: Feel better soon--we are thinking of you and wishing well thoughts!
Thanks so much, everyone! I am going to Florida in the morning to be with my mom. She is going to have two procedures done (not open heart, thankfully).
I really appreciate all of your thoughts, prayers and nice messages and I know my mom will too. In fact, I'm printing out all of them to take to the hospital so that she can read them there. I know it will make her feel good to see that so many of you are thinking of her. :) I know it really did that for me.
xoxoxo,
Catherine
Thinking of your Mom and putting her in my Prayers. Here is too a speedy recovery for your mom. Take good care of yourself.
I'm so sorry to hear your Mom is having heart issues and I hope they figure it out so she can go home with peace of mind... I am a new follower. I look forward to reading back into your journey... You look amazing, and you're such an inspiration to me... *Maria*-from "This on time at Band Camp..." Check out my blog at mybigfatbandgeeklife.blogspot.com
