...... aaaaannnnnd we're back!
Thanks to all of you for the kind comments regarding my recent bout with artistic near-burnout. I get like that sometimes.
Also, thanks to everyone who sent me all the positive messages on Twitter and Facebook yesterday regarding my mom's health problems. She's doing better and they are keeping her for a couple of days at the hospital to make sure that her sugar levels stabilize and her kidneys return to normal functioning. What essentially happened is that the very powerful antibiotics they had my mom on after her knee replacement interacted with the medicine she takes to regulate her diabetes. It nearly shut her kidneys down and lowered her blood sugar level to 40, which is almost coma-inducingly low. However, today she is doing much better. Thanks again for the kind thoughts and/or prayers.
See you all Friday!

I will keep you and your family in my prayers. What your mother went through sounds chillingly similar to something my family faced last year.
Congrats to your mother For recovering, and I wish long, happy lives for you all. I would keep you in my prayers, but I am not overly religious and do not actually pray.
I’m glad your mum’s ok. Sugar lows suck at the best of times (been there), but I am HIGHLY surprised that neither the doctor nor the pharmacist checked about possible drug interactions especially when it’s a chronic condition like diabetes.
I guess doctors don’t really care in the US as drug complications mean more money for them whereas in the UK, the General Medical Council would eat the doctor alive and revoke their license.
