My Ex-wifes aunt (does that make her my ex-aunt???) is in bad shape. She may be an "x" but has been family since I was 14. She has had heart trouble since birth, but had a valve replacement some years ago and has been fine since then. Well last week, for whatever reason, she developed some kind of clot or blockage and the valve stopped closing right. In the matter of a day she developed pnemonia, and her blood preassure sky rocketed. The next day her kidneys shut down and her liver is holding on by a thread. She has been in ICU for a week and last night had a major stroke. She is cant do anything with her left side, but can swallow.
She is 38 years old, and has 3 sons, a 9 year old, 6 year old, and 3 year old. She has bee in ICU for a week and they have now said that they need her bed and will need to move her out to Hospice as there isn't much chance for her recovery. At this point, I am most concerned for her husband and the childeren since it doesn't sound like she has much chance of recovering to any significant degree (although a miracle would be welcome). Prayers are welcomed...
