Need prayers for my mom!!!

[TamithaSue35]

Needing prayers again!!! My mom just called me tonight and as some of you know my mom was diagnosed with a thoracic aortic aneurysm about a year ago and it needed to have surgery on it but with my mom being 80 years old they didn't want to they said they would just check it in a year to see if it grew any well she just told me she was in pain again the other night and went to the ER and they rechecked it and it has grown. Last year it was 4.4 X 5.3 cm and now it is 5 5.6 cm...might not see like a huge difference but it is when you are talking about the main artery of a person's heart.

In case you don't know what a thoracic aortic aneurysm is read below and then PRAY for my mom as this is very serious and either way with or without surgery she might not be with us very much longer. An aortic aneurysm is a bulge in a section of the aorta, the body’s main artery. The aorta carries oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the rest of the body. Because the section with the aneurysm is overstretched, it can burst. If the aorta bursts, it can cause serious bleeding that can quickly lead to death. Fifty percent of patients who experience a rupture of a thoracic aortic aneurysm die before reaching the hospital.

Doesn't sound good at all and she really sounded scared which she never does so that really scared me!! So give up some of those prayers....she really needs them. She's supposed to have an MRI on Thursday and then let me know what's going on once the results come back.
