Brief and to the Point

Mom was taken emergently to surgery today and both of her legs were taken off, one at the knee and one just below. I'm on my way there. Her lab results were indicative of blood poisoning related to her rotting feet, thus the sudden speed. My brother said she is headed for the intensive care unit as soon as she is discharged from post anesthesia recovery.

Continued prayers are appreciated.
