I was in the waiting room for two years, for aortic valve stenosis. I had my aortic valve surgery on October 9,2018. I went with the tissue valve. For two years I read the post of these heart warriors. It seems when it is your turn for surgery you have the heart warriors that just went through it or going through it with you. Then you have the other heart warriors that are here for us always. I am also a breast cancer survivor, plus bladder cancer survivor. I am also a diabetic type 2. You know, I am still here doing well. I am cancer free, my sugar is under control, and I am so trying to eat better, and I am exercising more. I started cardio rehab the day before Thanksgiving, will be ending it on January 30th,2019. The cardio rehab really done me good. I go twice a week. The days I don't go I excise at home. I wish Adam would go back to a year or two on the name of the warriors, so the new comers could read their journal. I kept some names of the heart warriors and when I needed it, I put their name in and went to their journal to read which help me with my issues. I walk a lot before my surgery, it had calms me down some. My anxiety was high, my doctor gave me Alprazolam 0.25mg to help me. The closer I was to my surgery this medicine help me. Plus, this website was a good sent. Thank You Adam I wish you all the best in your surgery's, and for those in recovery. This website is the best. We all know how your feel about going into surgery, and recovery.
