About Me (In My Own Words)
I was born with a bicuspid aortic valve. Well three weeks ago I was fixing my ten year old breakfast when I got very dizzy. My Cardiologist had me come into his office. We talked he checked me out and he said it is bad. Last week went in for a heart cath; and on 3/30/2017; I meet with my surgeon. He wants to do the surgery at the end of April 2017 due it a cracked tooth that is getting pulled on 4/5/2017. I have been doing research but at 47 years old; I am having a ON X mechanical valve put in. I am scared. If something goes wrong I am leaving my sister alone along with my ten year old son to grow up without his mom. Luckily he does not know about the surgery yet.
