About Me

I am in the process of getting an aortic valve replacement. I haven't scheduled the surgery and hope to do it sonetime in October. Many questions. Many thoughts. Would love to speak to others on their thoughts, outcomes, and best options for them. I am 45 and am trying to weigh out the options tissue vs. mechanical. Trying to make the best educated decision possible.
