American tennis star Jessica Pegula is grateful for "an overwhelming response" to her story as she appreciates all the messages of support sent to her and her mother Kim.
In an essay for The Players' Tribune, Pegula revealed her mother suffered a cardiac arrest last July. Fortunately, Pegula's sister Kelly was there and she administered a life-saving CPR.
Although Kim Pegula is making progress in her recovery, she is still dealing with significant expressive aphasia and significant memory issues.
The past six months have been extremely challenging for the Pegula family as the American tennis star fears her mother will never be the person she was before the cardiac arrest.
"Overwhelming response to my story. I appreciate everyone who has reached out, means so much," Pegula wrote on her Instagram Story.
