Hey, Jan.
Pete. Hi. How're you doing?- Can't complain, eh? Oh, how's your mom doing?
- Oh, thanks for asking. She's doing much better.
- The doctors said it was just a mild stroke.
- She's already out of the hospital.
- I think it was kind of a wake up call for her.
- I bet. Pretty scary, eh?
- Yeah. Kind of hard to believe, but we've learned a lot from all this.
- I think she'll be trying much harder to take better care of herself.
- Right. It's a good thing it wasn't anything more serious.
- Yeah. She's gonna be alright.
