She's in a medically induced coma. They lowered her core body temp to around 32C. They'll be doing further tests tomorrow AM to see where she stands.

Keeping your mom and all of you in our prayers Rick.
Let us proclaim the mystery of our faith: Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again.

Lord I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.

Thanks for the thoughts and prayers everyone.

It may be hours or even a couple of days before they know how much if any brain damage was done. We know eventually, if she gets through this, she'll need bypass surgery.

I'll keep everyone updated.

We are doing ok now. At this point it's just a waiting game.

If anyone is interested, this is a little about the procedure she's going through.

Hey, just posting to let you know I'm thinking about you and your mom. It's pretty much my first thought each time I've logged on over the past day or so. Whenever you feel like you can update us, but please don't rush.

How are you handling this?

May God be with you Rick and your family. I am very sorry to hear of your loss. How are you doing? Your family will be in my prayers.
It would be a blessing if they missed the cairns and got lost on the way back. Or if
the Thing on the ice got them tonight.

I could only turn and stare in horror at the chief surgeon.
Death by starvation is a terrible thing, Goodsir, continued Stanley.
And with that we went below to the flame-flickering Darkness of the lower deck
and to a cold almost the equal of the Dante-esque Ninth Circle Arctic Night
without.
