Mom

It's a scary thing when your sister calls you late at night, telling you that your Mother, who's 80 years old and has been dealing with a lot of health issues during the past couple years, has been put in the hospital for pneumonia.

I'm such a mama's boy. I broke down immediately. I still can't get her out of my head or stop saying a prayer for her. Doctor said that she is going to be fine, but when you're 80 years old, pneumonia isn't a good thing.

She had the flu for the past couple of days. She refuses to get a flu shot every year. Maybe she'll think twice about it next time.

I just hope everything turns out ok.
