Some of you might remember last year I had a girlfriend who lost tons of weight, wasn't eating and wound up in the hospital with a bacterial infection in her heart. She was put on heavy meds and cleared the infection. She's been working out, eating right and has really recovered well. She even started dating again recently!
Well yesterday was her 6 month check-up...and it wasn't such good news. Apparently there was some damage done to her aorta during the infection. She's not currently showing any symptoms, but it sounds like this is a serious problem. She will likely have to have open heart surgery (at age 27) within the next couple months. She has an appointment tomorrow to lay out a course of action, but she's nervous and scared.
Can you please keep her in your thoughts & prayers this week ladies? She's already been through so much (also lost her mom at age 22) and I really want to help her through this.
