John Lant You have this Brenda and you and your heart will love your valve. I had my Aortic Valve replaced on 6/25/18 and I feel great. I can do things now that were difficult before my valve replacement. My chest scar is barely noticeable now and i can now look forward to a active lifestyle for many years to come. Best wishes on your surgery and a very speedy recovery.

Lisa Leake Thanks

Hi Lisa! I wanted to wish you all the best with your upcoming surgery. I hope you’ve been able to enjoy the holidays and that your anxiety isn’t too bad. I know for me the weeks then days beforehand were rather a blur, and I felt a mix of wanting the time to drag but also wanted to be done & over with the surgery! I hope you feel supported in caring and knowing that you’re not alone. Best of luck to you!

Lisa Leake Thanks

Lisa, I will be saying a prayer that all goes well for you. It sounds like you are in great hands. My heart problems sound very similar to yours and my surgery is scheduled for January 16. I never wanted to be part of this club but it’s comforting to know that we aren’t alone. Hugs. Pam

Lisa Leake Thanks Pam. These days of waiting are very difficult, I believe people are tired of hearing me talk about the surgery... this is a great way of discussing everything about our journey. I’m actually very ready for this to happen. When lying in bed at night, I feel my heart ❤️ beating and working harder than ever before. Looking forward to meeting a stronger me.

Jeffrey Dyer Waiting is the hardest. I was just thinking that it doesn't seem like 22 weeks have passed since my surgery...

During my waiting I played as much tennis as I could to keep myself in the best aerobic shape as I could.

Lisa Leake Wish I could play tennis or something to keep me physically active but that’s an issue for me now. My aortic valve is in severe status. I’m doing stretching yoga and that sort of activity. If you knew me you would suggest I sit down and relax, lol, I have difficulty sitting still.

Marie Myers I was a never-sit-still- type also. But having been through the whole process, I know know how import ... Read more

Marie Myers I was a never-sit-still- type also. But having been through the whole process, I know know how important it is to sometimes just be still. All the more reason to keep doing the yoga, meditation and breathing exercises...
