    What its worth

    Wednesday, February 6, 2008, 08:43 AM CST [General]

    My grandmother is in the hospital and going to receive a triple bypass this morning.  Apparently, Sunday night she wasn't feeling well and thought it might just be a nerve stressed in her shoulder or something, but after taking a Nitro and feeling better, she knew it was her heart and had to go to the emergency room.  They said luckily that she didn't have a heart attack, as the smaller veins around the heart seemed to be fully supplying the blood in/out since three of her main heart arteries were completely blocked.  She had three stints put in back in 2000 and only one held up to date.  So, now she is going to have open heart surgery and have veins taken from her leg to replace the bad ones in her heart.  Did you know they sometimes they purposely stop the heart from beating to replace the veins.  I didn't.

    Below, you will see a picture of the normal coronary artery which is what hers will look like after 5 painful hours of surgery.  Also, I included a picture of what happened to her arm/shoulder Sunday night.  Send us your prayers.
