Okay. I have been avoiding this post for as long as possible, but it is time. My mom is pretty sick. She has diabetes which is a bit under control now, but last week we found out that she has some heart issues. To the point that the doctor who did the EKG walked the results over to the Cardiologist to make an appt. for her. The Cardiologist prety much told her that unless they do a bypass (which is not an option due to lung problems as well), she can expect a slow painful death. Those were his exact words. Nice, huh? Anyway, since she can't have the bypass, they will be doing an angioplasty and putting in stents on on Monday (20th). She went in for some more tests today, and the doctor was wanting to wheel her over to get angio done today. This should help decrease her pain, and help lenghten the time she has left. At least I hope so. I don't know what I'd do without her.

BTW, Thank you ohno_jonathan_o. If you hadn't guilted her, she wouldn't do it.

sick, mom
