OT: sad news..

I wanted to let everyone know that had so sweetly posted to my mothers fall and hip replacement know that she died this past saturday morning. Totally unexpected. She had just seen her ortho doc that thursday and he was so happy with her progress. Saturday morning I went in to see why she hadn't gotten up yet and she was gone.

This has got to be the very hardest thing I have ever gone through...
