And just recently she started having pain in her knee, and she ended up going to the doctor around yesterday and found out that her Tibia (Knee bone) is dead. Now if you know anything of anything you will know it's not good when a bone dies.
Turns out there is a %99 chance that she will have to have a bone replacement. But the replacements only last 15 to 20 years and you can only have a maximum of three replacements. She's only 17.
There is a replacement that lasts fifty to sixty years. And her mom was looking around on the internet for doctors who do this, but so far the only doctors who will do these surgeries are in Japan.
While this is enough to make someone cry already it get's worse.
When she was around seven she had Tuberculosis but got rid of it. But it came back around the time she was eleven. They had her on steroids to rid her of it that time also but she had a stroke sometime after that. But she again managed to lose the decease and everything went fine.
But now they just found out about this. They say it more than likely started around two years ago.
So now she's going in Tuesday to get a full body scan to find out if it has effected any other parts of her body.
This could really be bad...
If all you guys could take just at least 10 seconds out of your day and just say a prayer for Amanda it would be AWESOME!
It's just such a sad thing that is happening right now...
God Bless You All,
Aaron
She is in the prayers of many. With God, nothing is impossible, though, always remember that. There are many miracles that happen that frankly baffle scientists. Don't give up hope!
