Thanks Marie! You are inspiring, will most likely have similar surgery as you. Fun, fun, haha. Congrats to you on post op anniversary and beyond.

May 4th..On the way home from hosp..so glad this was done!
Found out before spine surgery I had a 4.5cm aneurysm ascending aorta..and a leaky valve. So I'm on my next health mission, haha.
Here's hoping your aneurysm is done growing, and that you won't need surgery! Welcome to the site. Lots of good info here.
