Ann - welcome to the community! You will find a variety of feedback about mitral valve recovery.
A short, painless recovery was among my top priorities. I opted for a minimally invasive side entry for my repair. Hospital stay was 3 days, there weren't any driving restrictions because I didn't have my sternum cut, and recovery was pretty easy. Preparing your home with a recliner, shower chair, and frozen meals can make the process manageable.
