Journal entry by Lorie Gregurek —
Hello all,
We have received some unfortunate news about mom’s condition. She has been in the hospital for several days due to extreme weakness and low oxygen levels and after running a bunch of tests it was discovered that she has two masses in her right ventricle as well as emphysema which is causing severe pulmonary hypertension. The masses are either blood clots or tumor so she will have a procedure done on Monday to get a closer look to get a better idea of what they are. The doctors say the masses are not as concerning as the hypertension, which is untreatable other than oxygen and regulating her fluids. When she comes home on Monday after the procedure, hospice will be in place. Please pray for comfort for mom and strength for us as we begin this journey that we traveled just months ago. Love and hugs! ❤️🙏🏻
