Tammi Gunwall This heart family has been amazing. I honestly don't know how I would've gotten through my surgery (before, during and after!) without all of you. I'm just glad to help in anyway possible for Julie and anyone else going through this...a pay-it-forward moment I like to think of it as. It truly is such a special connection we all share!

Adam Pick When I started HeartValveSurgery.com 9 years ago, one of my dreams was to help connect patients with other patients. I never imagined that dream would extend to the real world. Thank you -- Tammi and Julie -- for sharing this picture and your experiences. You have touched, moved and inspired me and, more importantly, this wonderful community. :)

Julie McDonald-Lundgren Thank you Adam! If it weren't for this site I would not have found Tammi and I think my anxiety would have taken over without her help...knowing and meeting someone (same age, kids, same concerns) that had been through the same thing made me feel like could get through it, too.

Lenore Mitchell Hey Tammi! I agree, our scars are badges of courage. Love the red. I haven't been ok'd for cardiac rehab yet, but did walk for an hour today (slow as a turtle).
Beautiful picture. So great that the surgery is behind you. And your scar is healing very nice.
Jim O'Brien Wonderful picture. You do indeed look great. I hope and pray that your recovery stays trouble free.

Clare Auten Cool. I am sure you will have a post OHS pic to post next spring. I have done a few since OHS and did complete the half marathon I had registered for before surgery.
Thanks for sharing.
