It wasn't a heart attack, but hemorrhoids. Very bad case of it and has to change her diet to include a lot more fiber than she has been eating.
We have all learned a valuable lesson that eating our raw fruits and veggies is an important part of life. That our mothers didn't make us eat that to be mean, but to keep us regular.
She got home yesterday, Saturday, around 11:30 a.m. and has been resting off and on. Now she just has to relax to get better.
Thanks to everyone and their concern last Thursday when we thought it more serious condition. Thank God it wasn't what we thought it had been.

It ended up being a little more complicated than just hemmorhoids. I had internal bleeding that they think was coming from the colon. I have more test in August to find out if I have damaged my colon with my diet I was on. I wasn't giving my colon enough of the proper foods for it to work. I can only hope that there is nothing else wrong.

We will pray for you and hope that your test come back negative. Keep up the good eating and maybe it will reverse the damage you might have done to your colon. Positive thinking brings positive results.....

Vonnie ~ It sure was a pleasure meeting you & talking with you at Eric & Sheryl's Wedding Festivities. (The ceremony was so beautiful - what a perfect day it was)! Jeff & I were so worried & concerned when we received word from Eric that you were ill. Once there was some news, Sheryl assured us you were okay & would be recovering & home soon. We were so relieved it wasn't anything more serious (heart related). I'm sure it was quite a scare for you & your family & will most likely take a while for you to feel 100% again. You continue to be in our thoughts. We hope & pray that the tests you have done in August will show happy results with no damage. It's so amazing how adjusting our diet can affect so many organs & functions of our bodies. Who would have thought so much pain or potential damage could happen from that? We'll all learn a valuable lesson from your experience & try to eat more "balanced" meals. Wishing you a speedy recovery & all our best. Keep smiling.
