Thank God he was in the hospital, as everyone else has said. Go with what the doctors say--not your mother--in terms of whether you should be visiting the hospital or not. They're in a better position to rationally judge medical risks from colds than either of you are right now and they're used to dealing with this particular issue regarding sick relatives of a patient.
And yes, if anything untoward*avert* happens, the hospital will call you. Trust me on this one. Been there, done that.
