I finally had my Mitraclip procedure on Friday 1/30/26. It went smoothly, and they were able to fix my Mitral prolapse and reduce my severe Mitral regurgitation to “trace/mild” regurgitation. I just couldn’t believe how much better I felt the SAME day! They ended up using 2 Mitraclips. I stayed 2 nights at Bluhm Cardiovascular Hospital and was released this afternoon. I am now on the road to recovery, and have truly been given another lease on life!!!

Darrell Malone All the best with your recovery.

Ana Brusso Congratulations and continued good health. God bless you 🙏❤️

Rose Madura Wonderful news! Welcome to recovery.

Grace Mason Great news Jyll! So glad to hear your team has you feeling so much better

Kathy Blank You look amazing Jyll! What an incredible story you have- you inspire me!❤️❤️

Thomas Brusstar That's great! I had a mitral repair at the same place. Good luck on your recovery!

Skipper Kagamaster Waiting is absolutely the hardest part. Well, until recovery, but that's almost better because you can actually do something to affect your health and, moreover, the surgery is in your rearview. Hang in there; this will pass!
