Hey everyone!!!!!!!

My mom wanted me to let everyone know that she went to the ER tonight. Her fistula stopped working and her blood pressure has been going crazy.

She has been admitted, is laying in a hospital bed and waiting for tests to start. I will continue to update everyone as i hear from her.

Please keep my mom in your thoughts and prayers!!!
