OT Prayers Please

My mother in law just found out she has a brain aneurysm. Apparently the type she has is one of the worst types to have. The good news is that it's small and the Dr's told her that she could choose to wait six months and see if it has grown in size before they do surgery or she can have surgery now.

The surgery would reguire removing part of her skull. She has elected to wait and let the doctors monitor the aneurysim. I can't say that I blame her.

I just pray that between now and six months that it doesn't grow or that it disappears altogether..

I love my MIL as much as I love my own mother.. I'm truly blessed to have someone like her in my life.

Well hugs to you, how scary for your family!

Prayers for your MIL, and you.

Medicine has come a long way, I'm sure she'll be okay, or they would have insisted on surgery right now.

Hugs and hugs...

Sending prayers...I am sure this must be very scary for all of you. My thought in reading this was how fortunate that they discovered this. Sometimes one doesn't know about it until it is too late. With knowledge comes the ability to monitor and make a choice. That is something to be grateful for.
Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers. Thanks for posting here. I know SR prayers are very powerful

Big hugs and prayers to you and your MIL. Aneurysms are scary, and my heart dropped when I read your post, BUT the fact that they are willing to wait and see is a good thing. As Moose said, they would have rushed her into surgery if they felt she needed it.

Hugs and prayers!

Amy
