I had an amazing surgeon in Canada, can I add him to the data base??

I HAD MY AORTIC VALVE REPLACEMENT LAST OCTOBER, BUT SUFFER FROM ANXIETY AND WAS PUT ON ATIVAN. I WAS ON 1MG FOR1YEAR AND 1 MONTH THEN CHANGED TO .05 FOR A MONTH THEN THE DR SAID I COULD OFF OF IT. I SEEM TO BE GOING THROUGH WITHDRAW WITH HEADACHES AND SOME TIMES FASTER HEARTBEAT. HAS ANYONE ELSE GONE OFF OF ATIVAN AND HOW LONG DO THE WITHDRAW FEELINGS USUALLY LAST. THANK YOU ROCHELLE HAMMER

Adam — Thank you for both your blog and book. They were very helpful during my recovery after bypass and mitral valve repair surgery last year. In fact, I have shared your book with two other patients since. Adam, I am wondering if there are any resources detailing the recovery process for very young children who have had open heart surgery. I direct a child care program; and, we have a two-and-a-half year old child who had open heart surgery this past June. While his physical recovery appears to be strong, his emotional adjustment has been more challenging than typical. I well remember how fragile my emotional state of being was 3 months after surgery, do young children experience similar struggles on their road back from surgery? How can we best help this toddler and his mom over the next several months? Gary
