Hello Dear Friends,
I’m sorry I was out of commission for a while but was in the hospital again. They told me this time, that I would NOT have made it to them in time IF my aneurysm had burst because I’d only have minutes to Live!
For those who don’t know, I was diagnosed with a thoracic aortic root aneurysm in my heart when I bumped my head in June; which is the Worst kind of aortic aneurysm you could get if you had one. This means in order to repair it, it could only be done through Open Heart Surgery (the old fashioned way, with no laparoscopic available)!
Before this, my health was normal…
Since diagnosis I have had to go to the hospital several times, with new health concerns emerging.
After several “misdiagnosis” of how to solve the problem, God finally led me to the Right hospital this time: Cleveland Clinic with a thoracic surgeon who has performed this operation successfully 24,000 times! He said my aneurysm is at 6cm & requires URGENT surgery! I am Grateful that God has allowed them to find this out, and now I am preparing for my surgery which is in a couple of weeks. Every week I have to go to the hospital to do Pre Op, leading up to the day of surgery. I will keep everyone on here who donates, posted with updates.
These experts tell me that any little thing could cause the aneurysm to burst: too much exercise exertion, stress, high blood pressure, a car accident, etc. your help will alleviate some of that stress right now. Thank you!
Estimated costs cover: medical care Pre Op, Open Heart Surgery, in hospital stay, post op care, food and living expenses for up to 2 -3 months max at least until I can get back into the swing of things.
I don’t have ANY family available to help me (and I’m single) as my mom passed away last year from Aortic Disease. I showed my moms medical records to my dr and Now we know this is a genetic condition brought on in my case by stress, but rarely found alive. This is usually only found upon death. So I am Grateful to be the one in my family to Break this generational curse from continuing. Please pray for other family members.
I will be in the hospital for Thanksgiving & up to 10 days after, then I’ll be recuperating after that. This is a lot to take in but in order to live, I need to have this surgery and help in recovering from it. I’m not avoiding dealing with this any longer, I just have to do it! I didn’t ask for it, it just happened.
This is a rare condition & to catch it in time is even rarer, but anyone who knows me, knows that my life has been Anything but Normal. God has been so faithful to me before and I know He will get me through this!❤️
Please pray for peace as my mom’s home is still in probate and she has entrusted me to the executor of her will. I was just informed that the water heater needs replacement.
I am currently having to relearn everything from dressing myself, to walking, grooming & even bathing.
My prayer is for this New Heart will be a Fresh Start and that God can somehow heal all of the hurt that has been done to this heart over the past.
Unfortunately, I just earned that the water heater at my mom’s home where I have been the executor taking care of it has burst so upon my release 12/6/21, I cannot return there. Please pray God will bring me to the place He wants with peace. Thankyou.
I Thankyou & I Love You All
With my sincerest appreciation❤️
God bless you,
Dr. Kat
PS
I want to take this opportunity to help educate others on this disease & say thanks to the John Ritter Foundation for opening my eyes to pursue the best medical care possible which I am now getting.
