[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the poster who suggested talking to the surgeon and seeing whether or not she’s a candidate. She may not be - but my parent had heart surgery at 91 and it’s now 2.5 years later and she’s fine. At the time, the doctor told us she had a 15-20% chance of dying from the surgery. Ask what the odds are, what can go wrong, what are the best possible outcomes (it may no longer be possible to get her to a level that makes any sense). [/quote]
