Nightmare...Wide awake!

Monday afternoon my mom was having a really bad headache and throwing up so she called my sister to come over. Nikki just thought it was a bad case of the flu. Next thing you know Nikki is calling to tell me the ambulance just took my mom to the hospital. then she called form the hospital ta say that my mom had a brain aneurysm. WHAT....anytime ive ever heard the word aneurysm it's in the same sentence with the word died...All I could think was if I lost my mom too I might have a meltdown. I already lost my dad i could NOT lose my mom too! Jaime and I hopped in the car and rushed to the hospital. By the time we got there they had already transferred my mom from banner Gateway to good sam's. It was 11pm or so when we got there and as soon as they let us in to see her i was in hell. She did not look good, I was trying to think positive, but I still kept thinking what if. Me and my two sisters slept in chairs at her bedside that night. then we spent the following day just waiting to hear what was going on. That afternoon about 4 they transferred her to St. Joe's Hospital. As soon as we got there we knew she was in good hands. They took her into surgery first thing the next morning and it went well. I'm skipping lots of details and medical terms, but that's most of the story. surgery was wed morning. Since then shes has several rough days. Saturday I'm came home to get my baby that i hadn't seen since monday. I was dying. Yesterday, Sunday my mom called and talked to me on the phone. Keep in mind on Saturday when i was there she could not have done this. I was in heaven, it made my day. Today, Monday, she is eating her first meal of real food since last monday sometime. The doctors say were not out of the woods yet b/c she could still have a stroke or siezures etc...she will be in the ICU for another week or two, but I feel so blessed that she has progressed the way she has. As I was driving to work this morning I was sad b/c i normally call her. she is driving to work the same time as i am usually. We have a long road in front of us, but I feel like I'm going to get my mom back in one piece and There is nothing in the world that would make me happier. I know the lord would never give us tests we couldn't handle, but he's really pushing it with our family. I hope to someday understand why! One last thing, This last week has shown me how lucky i am to have such good sisters, it would have been alot harder if we didnt have each other to lean on.
