Shes having triple bypass because she
has heart problems. Whatever the reason.
Because of media hype he is concentrating
to much on the possible cause right now.

He needs to be there for his mom. She is
in for a long hospital stay without access
to her smokes. He needs to let her doctor
take care of her quitting and concentrate
on his mom in the here and now. Let the
future take care of itself. He can discuss
it with her doctor after the surgery:)

Right now she is probably nervous and
depressed. Not a good time to badger
her about her habits.

Let him know your there for him when ever he needs some one.. Pray for,if your religious, and let him know your going to pray for her.
That's what I do when some thing happens to my friends. It may not work, I'm not sure.. Just let you friend know your there for him.
