The end of March of this year mom went from being healthy as a horse to very sick it seemed like a matter of days Finally got her to the hospital to find that @ some point she had had a massive heart attack. Although we couldn't pinpoint the exact time Don and I remember her complaining of pains in her shoulder and down her arm. Being about as stubborn as anyone I know she refused to go to the hospital we believe that was sometime in late January or early Feb. When she got to the hospital we found out not only had the heart attack damaged her heart to the extent of no longer having the use of the bottom part of her heart. She also had blood clots in her right lung and both lungs were filled with fluid. They started to drain the fluid off her lungs and ended up damaging her kidneys. Mom has been home from the hospital since the first part of April with me and my family providing twenty four hour care. It has been hard @ times with having issues within my own family but we have managed. Mom is now as healthy as she can possibly be with her health problems. She is on oxygen twenty four\seven.
