Today was my first full day home after discharge Monday Jan 23rd. We are staying in NJ until I meet with my doctors at Mount Sinai on Friday. If everything is good we are heading back to florida on Saturday, Everyday away from the surgery is a better day! I’m eating a little and taking all my med and starting to come back to life! This website has been amazing for me ! When I felt I was going through it alone, I just read some of the previous posts! For sure the doctors that have trained to do cardio thoracic surgery are a miracle ! My grandfather died when i was 13 yrs old as a result of some kind of a heart issue. I’m sure todays medicine would have saved him! If you have upcoming surgery and your on this website, you did your research just leave it in your surgeons hands and fight hard to recover and you will!! All the best!!

Pat Munn Congratulations !! Wonderful news. So happy for you. All the best

Leona Resch Wonderful news Daniel! I’m so glad you are doing well! Every day you’ll feel a bit more yourself. Make sure you rest and don’t overdue it and you’ll be feeling more yourself soon!! I’m a month post avr at NY Presbyterian and live in NJ. What a difference a month makes! I’m feeling energetic, walking 1-2 miles a day and my appetite has certainly come back!! Lol! Hope you have a great report on Friday and can go back to that warm Florida sunshine!’

Due to the New York nurses strike my surgery at Mount Sinai was postponed until Tuesday Jan17th. I did all m pre operative testing today and just await the results of my Covid testing. I’m scheduled to have my aortic valve replaced along with my ascending aortic aneurysm repaired. The surgeon is adding the Maze procedure with a left atrial appendage. I believe this is to stop a couple of AFib episodes I’ve had in the past. Will keep you posted after my stay in n the cardiac ICU.

Steven Methot Not good for stress levels I am sure. Hang in there.

Deena Elani Daniel- someone must be watching over you. Way better to wait than be in the hospital now. You would have been in the ICU too. (Get that you want to get the show on the road, so disappointing, but you are almost there)

New York City nurses end strike after reaching a tentative agreement

https://www.npr.org/2023/01/12/1148648031/new-york-nurses-strike-mount-sinai-montefiore-agreement

After three days on the picket line, more than 7,000 nurses are returning to work at the city's biggest hospitals with the promise of "concrete, enforceable safe staffing ratios," their union said.

Susan Lynn We're cheering for you, Daniel!
