Good Morning My Face Book Family, My Family I Have Serious Heart Issues Along With Diabetes. My Diabetes has Been Out Of Control For Some Time. Not All Due To Eating Wrong but A Number of things I Elected Mot To Follow...Why? I Hate Routine, And I Hate Medications That Make Me Feel Crazy Bad. I Looked For Excuses Not To Exercise....Then I was diagnosed With Heart Failure...Which You Simply Cannot Breath...Cannot Sleep. My Body Is Worn Down. I Have 3 Stents In The Main Aorta... Now The Catcher Is With 3 Stents In The Main Artery..1...2...3...This Is How The St Thomas Hospital Works....The Least Issue With Your Heart And They Have You On The Table Putting In a Stent Or Open Heart Surgery....MONEY!! Thats The Bottom Line;; My Family Because Of This I Cannot Have Open Heart Surgery For It Is a Strong Possibility Of Death. This Is Why Surgery Has Been Delayed And They have Had Meetings On My Case. They Decided A stent Is The Only Way To Go....Because They Do Not Have any Space Between The 3 stents to do a By Pass surgery. So I have No Choice But Do A Stent. It May Help Temporarily But This Will Shorten My Life When Its All Put Together. The past Stents Put in May not be of the right size to open up the artery. Therefore, thats probably why I have not been able to breath for so long. ??? My Doctor Is A Heart Failure Specialist At Vanderbilt University In Nashville, TN. He Has His Own Surgeons And Crew And is Nothing Short Of The Best. Dr. Naftilan Has Given Me Instructions As How to Take Care of Myself In The Meantime Until They Can Get Me Into Surgery. He Says It Is absolutely Vital That I Have The best & Experienced Surgeon To Do This Stent For It Has To To Be Of Certain Size And Be Placed Correctly Since I Have 3 Stents Already There. I Really Appreciate Their Honesty About This. Doctors Will Tell You Nothing But I Insisted They Tell Me Why They Went From Open Heart Surgery To Another Stent. I Didnt Let Up Until They Revealed The Reason why....Wouldnt It Just Be Easier To Tell Patients WHY in The first Place? I Can Hardly Get Around, Cannot get Dressed For Running Out Of Breath, Find My Self Exhausted Just Talking On The Phone. I have to Be Quite And with NO CONFUSION or Major Activity. I Have For Once Followed My Doctors Orders...Needless To say I Have Enjoyed Soft Soothing Music, Warm Baths, Smoothies, No Telephones, and Getting Into My Head And Looking At All The Things I Need to Improve Upon In Order To Have A Better Quality Life....I Have Definitely Abused My Body Along With Diabetes Helping Me. Family I Am Forever Greatful For You And You Concerns About Me. I Am In Prayer & Medication On A Daily Basis Which Before I Did Not Take Seriously Enough, Though I Do Know I Needed It Then As Bad as I Do Now....Bottom Line....I Thought I Was Always Gonna Be Like I Have Always Been.....Active....Vibrate, A Passion For Life, Inspiring Others, But This Comes To A HALT! My Motive For This Message Is To Meekly Ask For Your Prayers Consistently and Ask God o Heal Me....For I Am Not Through With What I Was Put Here To Do. I Am Here To Help Others and Inspire & Teach the Wisdom I Have Come To Know. Please Stop And Say a Prayer For Me As Well As My Husband Buddy Who Has Lymphoma In All Lymph Nodes. He Sleeps All Time. No Energy No Appetite, No Joy, No Passion In His Life.. On Friday August 22nd I Will Be In Surgery....Dont Have A Time As Yet. Will Know On Thursday. This Message Is Only To Inform & Explain All In One Message....Please Understand This Is For Information To My FB Family And By No Means Sympathy Or Pity!! I Love All My FB Family!!! God Bless Each One Of You! Sincerely, Frances Broadrick
