My Story
So, as a special gift to honour my 50th birthday this year I learned that I will be requiring open heart surgery to replace a faulty aortic valve. On an up note, my health and my heart are both perfectly fine, it would appear that I was likely born with this valve and this situation has just gradually progressed throughout the years. The only symptoms I have experienced are mild shortness of breath when taking stairs or overly exerting myself (ie lifting something heavy), some mild fatigue (which I have been attributing to aging but I guess I was wrong) and some mild swelling in my lower limbs (it hurts to stand in one spot for too long). I decided to create this page as a means to share developments throughout this experience with my family and friends and a method of keeping myself mentally and psychologically calm. All in an attempt to maintain a healthy and positive attitude and if it helps someone else who might be facing a serious surgery someday, all the better!
