Thank you all so much. I'm so torn as to whether I should fly out to North Carolina to be there for him - even though he's in the hospital and I chat with him all day on Facebook. I just feel like I should be there although I'm also afraid his poor fiance who is a mess right now would feel like she had to entertain me. I also know it's a horrible time for me to leave work (we're down half my staff right now due to an incident last month). I can get updates all day and I am keeping myself busy so I don't cry all day. Recovery from this damn rhabdo is at a high rate, I think it's more of the "what could have happened" and the fact that we don't know the extent of muscle and organ damage yet is what's making me crazy.

What would you other Mothers do in this situation? He's 24 and lives with his fiance. Would Mom flying out to sit in his hospital room be just a big pain in the butt????

Dear Kori...follow your heart (and your gut), it need not be a long visit.
Sometimes as mothers, we need to see our children (always our babies).
Everyone will just have to understand & accept it should you decide to go.
If not...oh well...they'll get over it. As his mother, you've earned this right,
I support what ever you do~GOD speed & protect your journey!

I am not a mom but play one from time to time.... I think, if you decide to go, wait till he is home and settled in. This way you are there to help as needed and can give some 'relief' to his finance. Just a thought

Christine, my dear, YOU mother everyone, you ARE a mother
just lucky to have never birthed a baby. And a great one too!

Hi Kori, just checking in to see how your son is doing. I agree with Christine and Carolyn, there is no right or wrong answer if you should go or not. It depends on how you feel, and the kind of relationship you have with your son. It doesn't matter the age of our children,they will always be our child, and we will always be a MOM. He is in good hands at the hospital, and there's not much you can do but sit with him in his room, but if you wait until he's home, you can have a nice visit with him, and be more relaxed knowing he's back home and better.

Just got to skype with with him and he's in good spirits but still doesn't have mobility in his arms due to the swelling.
he and I are very close, I raised him by himself after his Dad stepped out of the picture, and he's my only child. I try not to hover too much but I am still a mom!!! He thinks he'll be released tomorrow (he won't) but he is trying to really play it down so no one worries. I'm going to defer to him and stay home at least one more day. Let me tell you, being able to skype is helping tremendously.

Bocephus is keeping me comforted and clinging to me so I don't have too many anxiety attacks.
