Thanks to everyone who welcomed me to the board a couple of weeks ago. http://messageboards.ivillage.com/n/mb/message.asp?webtag=iv-fb100plus&msg=117048.1
I am deeply sorry that I have not been around since my intro, but my mom had a heart attack the night I posted. She had to have an angioplasty. They found three blockages and had to insert shunts (?), or something like that, into two of them. She also had a bad reaction to the anesthesia. It was made worse because they (hospital staff) mistakenly put 3 nitro patches on her!They forgot to take the old ones off when they put a new ones on! She's been sick and weak since they let her come home and I've had to help take care of her. If I didn't have motivation to lose all this weight before all this, I sure have it now! I certainly don't want to have to endure a heart attack and all that goes with it!

Anyway, thanks again! I've got two toddlers ganging up on me (one's grabbed onto my leg and the other is trying to climb into my lap) :), gotta go!

You are going to need it. Keep her from getting to hot. That is what I personally think did my father in law in. Make sure she follows her diet the doctor gave her and exercises when he says it is okay.
Cherish every minute you have with her and ask her everything you ever wanted to ask and then some.
