My grandma is having an angiogram tomorrow to determine whether or not she needs heart surgery. She has a significant blockage, or whatever you call it. I'm not medically literate enough to know exactly what is wrong, what they will be doing and what that means, but I know that anytime they stick something into your heart it's serious. Doing it to a woman in her 80s probably makes it even more so.
It's likely that everything will be fine, but knowing that does not make me feel any less nervous about it. If any of you feel so inclined, prayers (or positive energy, thoughts, and wishes, whatever you want to call it) would be appreciated.
