She is not well enough to survive it. It's day by day now. Her lungs are rapidly going downhill. Even getting up to use the bathroom causes all the alarms to go off and and EKG is needed. So it's either she goes home as is, and her quality of life is nil and she'll need a nurse or risk the surgery and have a 50/50 chance and be on a ventilator 24/7. It's a no win situation. |

It's worth an try Krissy. He's an top notch doctor. |

Enjoy the time she has left while you all can otherwise you'll blame yourself later. i lost my mum about 6 years ago, I miss her, we all do but we now believe shes in a better place. Spend as much time with her as you can. Love, Mike |
