Hey Alec, so sorry to hear about your Mom. I'm so glad she seems to be doing better and wasn't "as bad" as the paramedics first thought. Things like this remind us how fragile all our lives are eh? Glad you're there for her.
As my Dad used to say to me when I was little and hurt:
Be Strong, Brave, Tough like an Indian (may lose a bit in "translation")
