I went to start the car up one morning and everything was fine, but when I started in gear, the steering was very hard to steer. I checked the fluid level in the power steering pump and it was a little low. Can the pump go out with no warning?

normally the pump itself failing would give a warning (sounds, leaks etc..). have you checked the belt?
