Vanessa's Guestbook

Andrea Smith posted a note for Vanessa that says: Like you, I don’t come on to this site so much now but I found it a great support when I was coming up to surgery and in the following months. I just checked in as today is my third year anniversary too. It’s great to have it all behind us and to know that life gets back to normal (as normal as it can be in these times!). Stay safe and best wishes from the U.K.

Connie posted a note for Vanessa that says: Congrats on your one-year anniversary! It's so amazing and wonderful how well you're doing. There's so much to be grateful for! Thanks to Dr. George and the whole team and to you for being an excellent patient.

Phyllis Petersen posted a note for Vanessa that says: Hi Vanessa, I'll be in New York from July 11 to August 1. I'm not sure of my schedule yet, but I'd love a chance to meet you in person. If you're interested, email me at fabphyllis@gmail.com. My first few days I'll be in Long Island, then probably in Staten Island, possibly Brooklyn and NJ too! Family and friends, but I want to get into the City too.

Ranardo posted a note for Vanessa that says: Howdie! Remember feeling tired is not a step back it's just your body adjusting. So be sure to listen to your body and adjust your activity accordingly. You will be able to push more later but we want to avoid any false starts or overflowing the engine. Keep your stress levels down by not getting too connected too fast. Being a patient is your job right now and not an easy one. I am glad to hear you're sticking to your job description of "good patient". Keep putting that first and continue to breath and appreciate being connected in those stress free ways.

Ranardo posted a note for Vanessa that says: This is terrific! You are UNBREAKABLE. I new when I saw you right away that you'd continue being resilient! Now after this tune up you are going to be UNSTOPPABLE! I'm not sure how I am going to keep up with you but I will figure it out starting with daily doses of apple cider vinegar.

Linda H. T. posted a note for Vanessa that says: Hi Vanessa, all sounds good. I'm glad to hear things are progressing well. I was hoping to visit but I'm worried about germs. I was not well a few days ago and Steven has a bug. I don't want to expose you to any germs that you shouldn't be near. Get well. I look forward to hearing more good news.

Lynn Walka posted a note for Vanessa that says: Dearest Vanessa, You are in one of the best hospitals with extraordinary staff. Procedures are so improved since my aorta heart valve replacement in 2010 at NY Presbyterian when I was 58. I am living proof that you will feel fabulous and energized again in a few days.
All will be well. Love, Lynn
