My sister and I at rehab. She's 17 yrs older than me and had her mitral valve replaced 5 weeks before I had mine repaired.

Sister support! The best! My sister didn't need the surgery but rented me a recliner, which is great!

One of my brothers is 5 years older, and had his mitral valve repaired 4 years before I did. He also did really well.

Way to go! Are those flowers in the back? Looks like a good day to go home with a bear! 👍
Dan Vechiola
Awesrome! Let the healing begin. Take ir one day at a time. Time is going to fly by.

Rob, those are flowers in the back. I have wonderful family and friends. I think the staff enjoyed them as much as I did (except the aide who was allergic). My hospital uses a bear instead of a heart pillow-Sir Coff-a-lot
Rob Sparling
Ha! Sir Coff-a-lot! Funny. Flowers are beautiful! Yay you!

Congratulations and the bear is great!

You will enjoy being home knowing you are in recovery mode. Rest , take your meds. And walk. You'll be surprised at how you feel by week 5
