I can't believe its been 18 months since my OHS to repair my mitral valve. It still seems surreal sometimes!! Things have gone very well over the last 6 months since I posted my one year update. I'm back to a fully normal life!!

Haven't been on the site since July of 2017 Darlene. Glad to see your doing well. Did you ever move to the Lehigh Valley???

Barry, sorry I missed your comment. I'm moving to Bethlehem in June 2019. We close on the house next week!! But I can't retire until next year. I have the time but I'm too young.

My sister (left) and I on the gondola at Breckenridge. I am 6+ months post OHS and I had no issues with stamina or altitude! I feel great!
