We got news.... AVM and me!

First a definition..

Arteriovenous malformation

Arteriovenous malformation or AVM is an abnormal connection between veins and arteries, usually congenital. This pathology is widely known because of its occurrence in the central nervous system, but can appear in any location.

The genetic transmission patterns of AVM, if any, are unknown. AVM is not generally thought to be an inherited disorder, unless in the context of a specific hereditary syndrome.

MOM Update

Okay, I know this has been going on and going on, but I know that you all love me and would want to know the latest news on my mother. Well, we saw the specialist from the University of Maryland Medical Center in Baltimore...we actually went to his office in Kent Island, MD across the Bay Bridge.

He saw the pictures...really nasty looking ya'll, and he said that because there are several AVM's (small broken blood vessels) in the small intestines, surgery is the only answer at this point. The AVM condition is congenital according to the doctor and although this my take care of the problem now it still may return as she gets older.

Well, I don't care what he says, we serve a God that is able, and if He doesn't perform a miracle with this necessary operation (yes, He gives us wisdom) He is still ABLE to.

So, the surgery is scheduled for April 21st and of course, I will be off for that week and maybe the following week as well.

So, everybody send me some LOVE for the next few weeks leading up to the 21st of April and I will still post until the 20th and then I will be handling my responsibilities concerning my MOTHER.

I LOVE YOU GUYS AND I KNOW THAT YOU ARE PRAYING FOR US AND KNOW THAT WE ARE PRAYING FOR EACH OF YOU AS WELL!

With A Sincere Heart,
