My boyfriend great grandmother had a heart attack, she is pretty old. (not sure how old, she was adopted and the adopted parents didn't know how old she was) She has two choices 1. Have and open heart surgery and they are giving her 50/50% chance of living it she does that. 2. Go in her legs, and remove the clogged arteries, but the only hospital that does that, is miles away and she would have to be flight for lift and she might not make it there, there is a 50/50% chance on that too. Please PLEASE pray that she will survive. I love her as she was my own great grandmother, and we love her dearly.  


** I will update this as soon as i hear more tomorrow. PLEASE BUMP AND PRAY FOR MY GREAT GRANDMA!!**


update:My boyfriend, our daughter and I are going to vist her in the hospital. I guess they are deciding to go to Chicago (the miles away option) I hope she is doing okay, im nervous, im scared, i dont want her to pass!!! ill update more when i get back.


UPDATE:Okay, well we went go to see her, and it wasnt good. I guess what they wanted to do(removing the arteries) wasn't FDA approved, and they didnt want to try it out on her because they want to do it on someone that would most likely make it, and they dont think she will. She was so upset today, she just kept saying she was tired and didn't want to do it anymore. She was having a hard time breathing, and kept coughing. They don't think she will make it even if she does have the open heart surgery. I just talked to my brother in law, and i asked how she was doing and he said she wasn't doing good at all, she was having a really bad time breathing... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE pray.


UPDATE:Today my boyfriend and i found out that our great grandma had another heart attack last night.My brother in law told me that she wasn't doing so well and that she was on a thin line. They didn't think she was going to make it with her first heart attack, and now she has to.. =[ This sucks so bad.. PLEASE prayy!!!!!!


UPDATE: My brother in law just texted me and said "See if Cody can get up here, you all need to be up here so if your mom will watch the baby". Im so nervous. im scared. We dont have a car *my sister stole our car when i got pregnant..long story i dnt want to talk about that* so we can't find a ride, this is horrible!!


UPDATE:Okay well last night we ended up staying the night. She was on a thing that was breathing for her. And the machine was breathing for her 80% when we got there. My boyfriend and i stayed up until 3 this morning taking turns going in there. She is or was sedated but last night they lowered the dose, and when i was in there with her she opened her eyes, and i said " don't talk, just nod your head yes or no, do you want me to go get Cody(my boyfriend)" and of course she nodded yes,so i went go get him. He went in there and she mouthed "I LOVE YOU" to him and he just broke down. The doctors told us all today that she isn't getting any better, but the machine is only breathing for her 50%, she is breathing the other half, but they still think she is doing good.She is hooked up to seven different IVs, and the breathing machine. We are going back tomorrow. Thanks for all the prayer we have gotten. It helps a lot.


UPDATE:At 4:54pm today, i got a phone call that i had been hoping we would never get. Today my boyfriends great grandma passed away. I dont know what to say, i dont want this to be real, Thank you all for taking the time to pray.

aw hun I just read your post. I am so sorry to hear it. I'm going through something similar with my brother.

You and your family will be in my prayers.

I know that nothing I can say will comfort you, because only you know how you feel. Just know that I am here for you if you need someone to vent to.

Bump

I am so sorry for what is happening!!  I hope that she pulls through alright!  I want you to know something that I learned from personal experience, though it may be hard to hear.  If she keeps on telling you that she doesn't want to do it anymore and she isn't doing so well, let her know that if it is her time it's ok to go and everyone she leaves will miss her because they love her- but will be ok. 

I wish I had done that with my Grandma.  When people pass, they need to know that everyone else will be ok without them- they need to have that peace of mind.  I hope that everything goes well for your family, you will be in my thoughts. :)

I am so sorry you are going through this. You'll be in my prayers.

I know what you're going through. My gram is  in and out of the hospital (( Just got out yesterday in fact))) and we never  know if she'll come home after she gets there.

My father in  law is always having test and surgery on his heart.

I have had MAJOR dangerous blood clots in my lungs twice and the speacialist told me if we dont get it all figured out I'll die very soon from getting them again.   I'm ony 22.

so I understand. I hope she'll be ok. I'll be praying for her and your family
