My mom has an aortic valve stenosis. We've known for 3 years; it's an operation you wait till it's truly needed before doing.

 

She got an infection, was very weak, had to go to the hospital. While there they put in a pacemaker for her afib. She had complications, in the ICU. It's been an ordeal.

 

She's still malnourished and they had to put in a nasal feeding tube to get her nourished and back to what she was before.

 

Scariest part is doctor is suggesting because of her size (she's small), age, they don't know if they will be able to do the valve replacement. That's odd because in the 3 years there was no mention of if, just the when.

 

Before this my mom was the liveliest person you'd meet. She's everything to me, my champion. I don't know how many times she took me to buy comics when I was a kid. Every week. We imputed the Overstreet values every year, to present.

 

I'm typing this from the hospital bedside. I've lived here for 10 days now.

 

I ask the good people of the boards for your prayers for Mom.

 

I don't know when I'll get back here...maybe never. I thank all of you.

 

I'll pray for your mother. I understand your pain and you are already much stronger than I. May God bless you both.

 

I am here if you need anything.

 

God Bless.

I feel your pain - my dad was in CICU on a respirator for 9 days after his bypass surgery. I thought he was never going to come off that respirator and die in the hospital, but he came through. Keep the faith, good things still happen and there are going to be lots of people praying for your mom and you.

Sending out good thoughts and good vibes brother. Hang in there, best of luck to your mom. I've come to realize that mothers are the only beings capable of defeating the Incredible Hulk.
