Hi All,
I am sorry I haven't been very active these past few days but I have been preoccupied with my Aunt in West Virginia, Her name is Brandi and she was admitted to the hospital last week to have a gore (I think that's what they called it, I am not good with medical terms) removed that was wrapped tightly around her thyroid and other glands in the area, She then started going into mini strokes almost one on top of another, They stabilized her and done a heart cath on her Friday, The mini strokes have since started again, They have no idea what is causing them, The Heart Surgeon came in yesterday and told her she has an 85% blockage in her main artery in her heart and she has to have open heart surgery first thing Monday Morning, They told her she had a 75% chance of having a Major stroke while in surgery, But if she didn't have it, they said they was 100% sure she would have a major stroke anyway, My grandma doesn't know the whole story, She her self is not in great shape, She k! nows Brandi has to have surgery and what kind of surgery but not the stats they have given her, My dad left out this morning to go be with them, So I am a nervious reck, With every thing going on and then having to worry about my dad being on the road, he is a diabetic and I worry about him not getting any rest or not eating right and that could throw his health off balance and I cannot handle both of the in the hospital. I am asking if you would please send positive thoughts and/or Prayers-Send it their way :),They ,Especially Brandi ,need all the extra help they can get. My grandmas name is Leotha and my Dads name is Larry.
I will let you all know how surgery goes tomorrow, They say it will be a 4-5 hour surgery possiably longer, so it will probley be late in the afternoon before I can post anything. Thankyou all for your help :)
