About a week and a half ago, my Aunt Rose’s heart was giving her trouble. She had open heart surgery several
years ago to replace a couple valves. She was sent home with medication and was
very weak. She basically had to wait until it got worse, which it did. Finally
she was in the hospital and had to wait for surgery to be scheduled. On Friday
she had open heart surgery to replace one of the valves. The original plan was just to go in with a scope, not full open heart. The surgery was a
success at first. In the wee hours she began having seizures. Now for the past
3 days she has been heavily sedated and medicated. They discovered she had some
mild strokes. Now we have to pray and wait until they take her off sedation.
This has been so hard for John and Laura. Their family has been through so many
heartaches. We are praying that she will come through this strong and be ok
without any permanent damage.
