Joe Scar is back on MJ today. Did he say anything about his mother?

My guess is that she is hanging on. He was on remote so he's probably nearby in case he has to rush to her side.

It's sad. I am having memories of when my mother was hanging in there and I had rushed to Dallas, staying at a motel near her hospital and I got the call.

I wish the Scarborough family well as they struggle through this.

the kind words. I threw a few kind words in a political thread, just because I didn't have another way to say it.

I would have to tell people not to mention it so that I would not cry.

on hospice then they would have with aggressive hospital treatments. They have to have 2 doctors sign on that they believe the person has less than 6 months. But, often in hospice they live longer and can enjoy life more not going to so many doctors appointments and having less medications with less side effects.

Every person is different. Many are in hospice for only hours before they die.

If Joe wants to talk about it he will. I would follow his lead.

I'm sure the crew who arranged his remote and his crew back at the studio in NY have been kind and supportive. And Mika is carrying on with hosting duties on the show. Good for them at a tough time.
