... "Mom has had a terrible time with allergies this year, having an allergic reaction to a new inhaler as well. When that happened, things just didn't get better for her. " ...
Allergies leading to allergic bronchitis, leading to pneumonia is a very common chain of progression. Hopefully she did not get as far as the strain on her heart developing into an irregular heartbeat, and if it did, hopefully either drugs or an external cardiac procedure can get her fixed and back to a normal heart function.
Prayers for her to recover fully and quickly.

She is out of surgery, resting, and doing fine now. I was told I could call her this evening. I'll let you know any news after that call.
