She's Back In The Hospital Again.

[gja1000]

Oh Janet, I'm so sorry! I know you are exhausted, I've been there so many times with Gary. You just feel like you can't do anymore, yet you do! I'm so glad school is out this week so you don't have to drive the bus.

When they get the bleeding stopped, and they do the heart cath, I hope they can put in stents or control the heart things with medication. I'm not sure your mom can stand surgery.

Please get your brothers to help you, if they can do something to help. You just can't do it all yourself.

Keep us posted!

Oh Janet, you and your mom are having such a hard time. I hope they can get to the bottom of her problems soon. Don't worry about the heart cath, it's a pretty simple procedure. They will give her a pill to relax, then put a tiny line in the artery in her groin up to her heart and inject dye. It will show exactly how much blockage she has and where it is. If it's something they can open with a stent, they will do it right then. They use the same line they already have in there to place the stent. Mike has 11 stents

I hope they can easily pinpoint the bleeding. I'm sorry she feels so bad, and I know how hard it is for you to watch. Will pray for you both!

Hoping to hear some good news but I guess not

I do hope she feels better soon. Sending lots of positive energy.

Thank you ladies. She knows the procedures are very serious, but she's so tired of being sick, weak, and light headed all the time...she's ready for just about anything. I've been up since 6:30 doing laundry..still have a ways to go, but at least I can get most of it done and get back to the hospital. Not real thrilled about spending the night...but she was disappointed I didn't stay last night.

My older brother and his wife do help alot...but...they both work all day, so it's harder for them. My younger brother works too, but he's an a$$. He wanted to know what set Mom off with the bleeding and I told him most likely the pizza (sausage, tomato sauce..etc.) and he turned it right back on Mom asking me if she knew she shouldn't have it. I told him she knew (but forgets) and she probably didn't want to make them go out of their way to fix something special for her..his wife is an a$$ too. She told me if she were me...she would have had Mom at the ER sooner. I have a feeling if they don't watch what they're saying I'm gonna explode big time and it won't be pretty. I'm tired, worried and I'm not about to put up with their crap. Sorry to rant...but I'd just as soon as them stay as far away as possible.

Janet I'm so sorry that your Mom is so sick. The hospital stays and the worry alone completely exhausts a person. A nasty family member makes it a dozen times worse. I'm continueing to pray for your Mom.~Hugs to you~

Janet... My thoughts and prayers are with you, especially your poor mum. I understand what you are going through, it is so so hard, i felt i had to be strong for everyone else, recently when i went through a difficult time - it still is difficult if i am honest.

I am thinking of you, even though i have not been feeling upto posting lately, i do still check in.

Take care.

Oh Janet, I'm so sorry to hear that your Mom's in the hospital again. I know that it's not only hard on her but on you as well. I hope they find what's causing the bleeding and can get it stopped soon. Go and stay with your Mom and don't worry about what needs done at home.....you have several days before you have to go back to work. Take care of yourself and you and your Mom will be in my prayers. Love to you both!!!
