I have recently had one lot of surgery, thinking this would help me until the surgeons decided on the next plan but no it didn't go that well. Now I am having surgery again a pulmonary valve replacement on 20th dec. I am scared on so many levels its un real. I am a single parent with two children, and I want Christmas at home.

Hi Clare, I am so sorry to hear this, worse possible timing for you. Hipefully this operation will be more successful for you and you'll recover sooner

I’ve had that surgery in August and still recovering. Been told it’s a 6 months recovery period. I’m glad I’ve had the surgery tho. Praying 4 this.

Went though my breastbone. I still get pain from the valve opening up. I’m on pain meds.
