Mother Not Well
I got a call from Erika late this morning saying that Uncle John had called, and was worried about the state of my Mother’s health. This was following a similar call from my Aunt Edith Sunday morning, who hadn’t heard from my Mother in a couple of weeks. Here’s the email I ended up sending to my Uncle after making a bunch of calls:

I finally got through to my mother a few minutes ago. She sounds fine, 
though it seems as though she had a bad episode yesterday, and I urged 
her to go see her local doctor to get checked out.

I have also spoken to her friend Morris, who has seen her today already, 
and may now offer her a lift to the doctor's. 

Could you do me a favour and let Cec and Edith know this information too? 
Edith called me yesterday saying she hadn't heard from my Mother after 
giving her a couple of calls over the past two weekends. Turns out last week 
she was on an overnight stay with friends, and yesterday morning (before 
the bad spell) she was at a friend's funeral.

...

Will keep you updated with more news as I get it.

The “bad episode” may have been in a mild heart attack from the way she described it, which has me concerned. I got her to promise that she’d see the doctor over the course of the day, and called her friend Morris as "backup" on this (my Mom too often shrugs such things off). Will call tonight and see what’s up, and perhaps head up to Keswick to “hold her hand” if anything is found wrong.
