Fans of The Colbert Report were upset to hear that their favorite show had been put on sudden hiatus this week, but when they learned it was because Stephen Colbert’s mother is seriously ill, they expressed an outpouring of support for the host.
Lorna Colbert, 91, of Charleston, South Carolina – the same state where her son is running for office as "President of the United States of America of South Carolina” - is sick and Stephen canceled the Wednesday and Thursday tapings of his self-named show to travel across the country to be by her side.

“Due to unforeseen circumstances, the show will air repeat episodes on Wednesday, February 15 and Thursday, February 16,” said a short statement from Comedy Central.
Usually Colbert is very active on Twitter, but he has not posted anything on the site since Tuesday, when he tweeted Valentine’s Day wishes to his fans. “Happy Valentine's Day! Hope you're enjoying your flowers, or chocolates, or smug self-satisfaction at not celebrating Valentine's Day,” the comedian wrote.
