Per her youngest: _Mr. Mike, I finally found you in Mother’s contacts. She’s sneaky hiding names._ _Anyway, she had a brain bleed 2 days ago_ _They surgically reduced it yesterday. She’s in ICU. The surgeon is optimistic this will turn out ok._ _I’ve been in to see her a few times today. She is always worried about the chat room Y’all are on. She said to find you and tell you what’s going on_ _I’ll have an update later tonight._ _Brooke_ ··· ---

Ohhh, my. I was worried that the head injury was significant. Thank you for the update, @dropzone. Keeping you in my thoughts, Beck. ---

That happened to my neighbor after he fell off his bike. It took a couple of days to manifest and then he wound up in the ER. It wasn’t a big deal to fix, so I’m sure that Beck will be fine. ---

Warm wishes (and hugs) from here as well, and another big ‘thank you’ to @Dropzone for sharing. Although, forgive me, but I’d prefer you and @Beckdawrek just find the secret to immortality so we don’t have to have anymore of these threads for either of you. ---

Update: _I saw Mother a few minutes ago._ _She is giving them fits in ICU._ _I told her to calm down and let the process go forward._ _She was happy when I told her the surgeon thought this was a set back but not permanent._ _She ask questions about the pets, the Dope and the family. In that order._ _My aunt her older sister came in from Texas so I gave part of my time to her._ _I feel like she’ll get in a regular room tomorrow and long as she calms down and her blood sugar stays good._ _Brooke_ ---

I wish her the best. Here is the thread where she talks about it: > [@Wait just a dang minute. Bad bad bad Ms. Beck-brain, we gotta talk](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/wait-just-a-dang-minute-bad-bad-bad-ms-beck-brain-we-gotta-talk/960583/38): > > Yikes, Becks. I hope your brain settles down, seizure-wise. One of the cautions I got when I had diabetic students was that very low blood sugar can cause seizures. It’d make sense that a malfunctioning pump would be behind your brain throwing fits. So glad Bayliss got to see you. That dog is good medicine. Stay feisty. ---

Accckkkkk, my poor Bekkers! Bekker-Daughter, bring your Mom a Sonic corndog, and a few Jack-in-the-box tiny tacos, if you can find a Jack’s near you! Make sure you keep tabs on JoJo! Maybe JoJo and Beck can be roomies in ICU? Thanks ever so much, @dropzone , for giving us the update! ~VOW ---

P;ease tell Brooke to tell her mom not to worry about the Dope; let the Dope worry about her, which we do. She’s a fighter, and Jojo especially needs her, so I’m counting on her licking this latest situation. **Dropzone** , thanks much for passing along the news. ---

I’ll be praying… for Beck, but even more for the poor hospital staff… who are dealing with “The Most Challenging Patient Ever.” Okay, **Beckda** [notreallythatmuchofa] **wrek** , get right back to tormenting the docs, hugging the family, and writing to us.
