About Me (In My Own Words)
I am waiting to confirm a date in September 2025 for surgery, I am struggling with the cow tissue or the Mechanical I am 57 years old work around the clock was going to retire next year and enjoy my 4 horses. Dr. Perchinsky says because of my age the mechanical is better, but then I am told I cannot sustain any trauma and it is too risky to be handling/riding horses. My husband dislikes the idea of a second surgery in 8-12 years. I do not even know how a first surgery will go??? I thought the mechanical was a great idea, until the "warfin" so not sure what or how to think at this stage, I think I am still in shoch/disbelief
