I got to the hospital this morning expecting to see my mom being rolled back into surgery but the doctors decided at the last minute to do more tests. They decided that she doesn’t have clots in her lungs but she either has a blood clot or a benign tumor in her heart. They will perform a test in the morning to determine what exactly they’re looking at and make a decision according to what they find. If it’s a blood clot they will go ahead and remove it. If it’s a tumor then the doctors will discuss the options with the family. Either way I don’t like the idea of having someone fooling around with my mom’s heart. I know that with today’s knowledge and technology it’s a pretty simple procedure but still the thought of it makes my stomach churn.
Thanks to all who commented and are praying for my mom.
“Life Goes On!”
It makes me cringe, too, but as long as you have good doctors, everything should be OK. I’ll be thinking of you and your mom.
Hoping for the best.
