This is J again. Mom came through the angiogram well. She did not enjoy it at all. Looks like she will need bypass surgery, probably on Friday, but that's just a guess, as I haven't talked to her surgeon about it yet.
Will keep you up to date as I know more.
UPDATE: It's Thursday noonish...looking like surgery will be early next week, probably Monday. I'll keep you all informed as I learn more. ~ J
This is where I share the wisdom that a granny, as an elder of the tribe, accumulates in her journey through life. The reach of my mind is wide, and sometimes even a little deep. Sometimes, like Whitman, I contradict myself. Sometimes I wax eloquent. Sometimes I fall on my face. Why not do it in public?

Liberal Identity
My Liberal Identity:
You are a Social Justice Crusader, also known as a rights activist. You believe in equality, fairness, and preventing neo-Confederate conservative troglodytes from rolling back fifty years of civil rights gains.

Please give your mom a hug and tell her our thoughts and prayers are with her. Sandy
J
Please tell your mom I'm wishing her a speedy recovery. Hopefully her kitties are under a trusty neighbors watch?
Hi--
Just found out that MG isn't doing well. She'll be in my thoughts and I'll keep checking here for updates. Jo****** if you read this, it's OO-Stacie sending you all good energy and love.
S.
Please tell her that I wish her well and hope for a speedy recovery!
Just a note from a former Juneauite (my parents still have a place up there, by Lemon Creek) to say I'll be thinking of you on Friday, and will check in as I can. Hope everything goes just fine.
Crossy fingers and candles lit and prayers and all that kind of thing.
Oh, my. Hope she does well.
Take care, J....
Sorry, that was me. I forgot to fill in the little boxes.
J., thanks for posting for your mom. I am sending her and the rest of the family my most healing prayers. The wonderful thing about modern medicine is all that they have done in developing surgery, and especially anything surgery to do with the heart. May your mom come out of this all with a new surge of energy on top of her marvelous joy of life. All the best.
J and J, I'm thinking of you both (and Richard too!) and sending good, positive vibes your way.
Thinking of you both.
Give her my very best wishes - hope all goes well. God bless.
Hadn't been here for awhile so just found out that MG has run off to the hospital for a rest from blogging. She's sure going to have lots of stories for us, but this just isn't the way to get them.
Please tell her this blogger friend is thinking of her and wishing her well. Her good spirits and attitude will carry her through. Thanks for keeping us updated.
another elderblogger sending wishes for better days ahead for maya's granny and her sweet family.
Hope all goes well and she's soon feeling much better. Thanks for the updates
Thought, prayers and love to Maya's Granny (and family) from an admiring reader.
Hugs
Shapelywench
Thank you Julie....my love....and many warm hugs to your mom. So glad you and Richard are there. I know that makes your mom feel better. She's a tough cookie....and oh so lovable.
