Prayer sent for her continued improvement.
Update: My Mom's heart is undergoing continual damage from an unknown source. UMC doctors think it may be a rare genetic disorder called Fabry's disease. If it is, I likely have it as would my children. There's little or nothing they can do to reverse the damage that has been done and she's likely too weak for a heart transplant. Thursday morning they took the defib paddles and stopped her heart in hopes that they would restart it and that it would assume the more normal rhythm. Then they couldn't get it to start beating. They hit her a number of times with the juice but they could only get a few faint heart beats. They cut her neck open right there in her room and threaded wires to her heart and hooked her to an external pacemaker. Once she was half-way stable they took her to the operating room and installed a permanent pacemaker.
Things are not looking good. Prayers are so helpful and we're convinced that we've seen miracles in her continued fight for her life. But, there is not much hope right now. We can hope and pray, but God is in control and his will be done.
