Just thought I'd share some exciting news - I got engaged last week! Was shocked but so very happy! My fiance is so great, and has been so supportive during this crazy time.

The first couple weeks after finding out I needed heart surgery were stressful to say the least. I think I cried almost every day as my anxiety and overthinking mind went crazy. I wanted to know what the plan was and how fast it needed to be taken care of...I... Read more.

Yes, finding out you need heart surgery is a very upsetting bit of news. Glad you are doing better on the emotional portion of the journey! Great picture, by the way..

When I learned earlier this year, I needed open heart surgery, I went through a lot of emotions. I'm glad you found this site before your procedure, I just stumbled upon it, searching for answers regarding recovery. Support from others going through or have gone through what you're facing, is...

I was intrigued to read that you asked if anyone knows what caused it. I was not diagnosed till i was over 70 from a noise heard during my annual physical by the same doctor i had for 15/years. If i had it before, he would have heard it. My... Read more.

I had my aortic valve surgery at Cleveland Clinic. They are very professional and do not make you feel abnormal about whatever is going on with your heart. They have seen it all. They made a difficult time in my life go as smooth as possible.

thank you everyone for your kind words :) I knew some day I *might* require valve surgery but figured if I did need it I'd be much older than I am. The last 2 years have been challenging health-wise but I am learning to roll with the punches and not... Read more.
