I just wanted to let you know i bought your book in MAy of this year and was very thankful i did,My 33 year old son had to have a heart valve replacement at the end of June And i really needed to know what to expect,And boy you let me know,If i had not read your book i would not have been as prepared as i was,especially about being in the ICU on a vent.My son’s surgery did not go as expected tho,complication,His heart was very enlarged and had to have complete by pass,replaced 3 arteries ,had the mechanical valve put in,And then when they took him of pump, and thought all was good his heart stopped working,They put him back on and was taken to ICU where he was for 12 LONG days,Things did get better after all this and is doing well.But your book was so helpful to me as he stayed with me for 3 weeks,got angry,agitated,depredded,but i was ready for it,Watched him with pain meds,very carefully also.Thank you for your great information ,It was truly a blessing to hear it from someone young who knew what he was facing.,
