Tomorrow I am going to tell my brother about our mother's diagnoses, and explain the prognosis.I could have told him by phone, but I will see him tomorrow at our mother's home.I would rather do this in person. From everything I have researched, and the info on the doctors test results, I would say my mother has a year or less. She has been very tired the past few months, and has literally fallen asleep right in front of us, while sitting on the sofa having a conversation.
From what I have read, a younger person with this diagnoses has a life expectancy of 5 years, but someone my mothers age has a life expectancy of 1 year. :(
Brian has had a couple of other friends that have come over and are helping him sort through what is left that he can take with him. He has to be out by midnight tomorrow.I am expecting a call today or tomorrow to haul the last of what he can take.
Quoting: tiger1  Sorry Tiger how old is she and can she not have heart surgery ? I am glad Brian has help, One day all this will not matter and we will be with wonderful people and no sickness. My mother is 94. Her health deteriorated after a doctor put a pacemaker in she didn't need, 4 years ago. Her heart was normal, and he convinced her she was skipping beats, which she was not. I saw her printouts, it WAS all normal. He scared her into doing this. She went into the hospital walking on her own,going shopping, eating out, etc,overall healthy for her age, and came out of the hospital 3 weeks later with a walker, wheelchair, and on oxygen 24/7, and so weak she couldn't do anything she did before. She is part of a large group of hundreds of former patients who are suing the cardiologist and his medical corporation.This doctor was implanting pacemakers even in young healthy patients, even 20 year old's. I know she is quite elderly, but she has had no quality of life whatsoever since this doctor did this to her. FTR, females in her family are generally in very good health, and live to their late 90's. One of her aunts was 103 when she passed away. I wish I could do more for Brian. It just choked me up, to see him cry. :(
