Just got word from the cardiologist/surgeon.
Mom has a 70% blockage of the main aorta (the one that causes the widowmaker heart attacks) and smaller but significant blockages in all the others.
They are going to have to do either a triple or quadruple bypass surgery.
They won't know for sure till they get in there and see how things look.
The surgery will be first of the week. They are working out all the details now and we should have the time/date nailed down by tomorrow.
If you would please continue to remember her in your prayers.

HB,
Only 70%, I suspect she will be fine.
Great Aunt of mine had something similar. She had so much more energy and vigor for life after the surgery. It gave her a good number of additional high quality years.
Best of luck to your mom.

Prayers sent for your Mom and the staff that will do the work. I had my triple in 2009 and have got 11 stints after that. But I am still doing what I want to when I want to.

Thoughts are with you.
I know a few who have survived triple becoming quadruple BP
Most spent about a week sleeping in a recliner afterwards...

Hope that things go her way.
My Dad had the quad done back when he was in his late 50's and lived a long time after.
They have gotten better at since the late 80's.
