Time seems to fly, as I wait for my mother to be revived. She sits on her death bed, no one knowing if she will survive. I sit by her and stare into what it seems to be her eyes. She doesn't look like what she used too. She looks like a different person. Tubing everywhere, machines beeping, things clicking. On maximum life support is what they say, till this day. Exploding heart valves is what caused this; open heart surgery gave her time to try and fight. You can't deny that she might die. Prepare for the worst, she only has a slim chance to survive. 10-20% chance they say. Saw her for 15 seconds before she went in for her life changing moment, before that didn't see her for months. I kissed her, hugged her, said I love her to what seems for the last time. Good news? None so far. Only to hope and have faith that she will survive. Every night, I try to sleep next to her. I speak into her ears, because I know she can hear me. I've seen her cry, while in this bed. So I know she is still alive. She is still fighting and trying. Machines are what keeps her existing but she has the will and the strength to be one day awake.

Heh, I don't know what I was doing, but I just started to type.

My mother on Monday came in to check if she would need heart surgery. They started to put the anesthesia to start sticking the tube with a camera at the end to see if she would need heart surgery. Her heart didn't react will towards this. She had a condition where she had a hole in her valve on the heart. Which is the reason why she came for this. As her heart didn't react well towards this, the valve decides to explode. My mother almost died instantly. Blood was rushed as well into her lungs. They had said that she needed to do surgery now. She went into surgery. 10 hours pass until she comes out and we finally have word of what's going on. She has a 10-20% chance to live. Prepare for the worst. I just hope everything comes out well.

Sorry for all the grammar errors and such, but right now I don't care for that. I am here typing this from a random persons computer in the cafeteria. I just needed to let some of this go. Some of my frustration. Well I have to get going. See you guys later.

You are doing the right thing by being there with her. Continue to hold up your faith and do whatever it is your love can do.

Hopefully she will recover.

Good luck dude.

I hope your mom gets better. Sometimes it's hard for me to appreciate what my mother does for me, but this helped me remember that she won't be around forever. Best of luck to you and your mom.

Thanks for all the support, really. Today they closed her open chest cavity. She had it open for four days straight. Today they were finally able to close it. So that's good, I hope.
