My Mom

An update on my mom...
She had emergency open heart surgery about a week and a half ago. What a trooper she is, she is doing great and has been home for a week. She feels better then she has in years, she has energy and can do a lot more things in a day without being wiped out for a week. She did not know that her consistent fatigued was because her heart was not working right. It turns out that she was born with a deformed aortic valve, that will not be detected until it is not functioning right. Her heart was in such bad shape that they said if they did not have the technology to do the surgery she would have no longer then 9 months. Good thing they have the technology, she now has a mechanical Aortic Valve that you can hear tick if it is very quite. Cody can not wait to hear her tick. Thanks to everyone that had her in their prayers, she is doing great and hopefully will not have any more problems.
