| Re: Prayer Request - Our Aunt Hi,
Thank-you all. We took her to the Cardiac Arterial Surgeon who ran more tests and told us/her that the blockages aren't enough to be doing what's going on (she fell again the night before the appointment), and also checked her legs for circulation/blockages and found some small ones - again, not enough for what's happening.
Next is an ultra sound on her stomach as he said there might be a mass or an aneurysm, which would be horrible as he's also said he would "not", under any circumstances, operate on her as she's just too weak and has lost too much weight - Mark and our cousin who was home, had to physically get her into her own house as she just couldn't do it.
So, we wait and daily, her memory gets worse.. and worse.
Though at almost 86 years old, she's said she won't agree to any surgery anyways, and I don't know if I blame her. Course, nobody knows really - what's going on. We're just doing the best we can and being there for her and also calling daily to make sure she's ok, plus it gives her someone who loves her to talk to.
Thanks,
Marilyn
