Mindi Wieseman Hi Amy. Yes, 2 weeks today, but I'm not the person with the I can do this! attitude I thought I'd have in recovery. The valve replacement went well for which I'm grateful! I think I just need to stay connected here with fellow heart warriors to find and sustain mental strength. Thanks for your post, Amy

Klara Čičić It is hard Mindi, it was very hard these first days for most of us... Mentally and phisically. Give yourself time. It is amazing how quickly things improve... 2 weeks is stil very very early! I am 4 months and still am not 100%. It is constant battle.... Hang in there! You can do this. Your body is doing enormous job healing right now!

Pamela Gregory So glad you made it through successfully Mindi! You will feel better week by week. I thought day by day felt like a snails pace but weekly I could see and feel results. I am 3 months out and much better but still notice a weekly difference. Let your support people help you do everything you need and focus on resting and any rehab that they want you to do. You can do this

Mindi Wieseman Thank you, Klara and Pamela!! I'm so thankful I came back here to all your support. Helps me accept what I'm going through in this journey rather than dwell on the "why me?". One day at a time

Today is a good day.

Greg Lewis Sooooo glad to hear from you Mindi! You can do this! I know you can!!
After my surgery, I was having a hard time mentally. And so my wife talked me into going to see the mental health lady, at the hospital. I am so glad I did that! She explained why, I was feeling the way I was. A huge part was the anesthetic. I had a ton of it, and it really messes with your emotions. It does go away, though.

And also...we all get on the "why me" merry go round! I have been on that ride many a time! Just don't stay on it! My Wife pushes me off, when she's had enough of it.
Anyway, I am just so glad your back!!

PS...some things I learned earlier on ....get dressed every morning. Get out and go for a coffee or something, every day. Go see someone. Achieve a small thing, every day. Do your exercises every day.

Mindi Wieseman Hello Greg! I am a bit, well, more than a bit, in that depressed state. Seeing a therapist would be a great idea. Thank you for your suggestions, Greg! In spite of the difficulty of this journey and the fear of it all, I'm thankful I'm now on the recovery side and have the support of all of you guys!!

Richard Munson That is exactly how i did it amy by going back a few days i found a post she made and clicked on her name and her site came up and i reclicked on sending her a message. All very high tech. Lol. I have been curious myself. Hopefully all is well. Your post prompted me to do it.

Amy Berger yes - please!! I'm now in single digits away from surgery and your site is so important to helping me keep a positive attitude! Over the past few weeks every time someone has had surgery and not posted afterwards, my mind starts to wonder ... My husband hears about everyone on here all day long and he says he's so glad that I have all these new friends :)

Greg Lewis That would be splendiferous! I have thought before, that would be nice!

Richard Munson I said to my wife that if i were to kick the bucket no one would know on this sight. How about a rule that surviving family member must notify heart valve site. Maybe a richard won’t be coming down to breakfast post.
