Hi, am Stacey 33 and born with TOF. I found out two weeks ago the I have outgrown my valve(last surgery was when I was 7) so on Sept 8 I will be going back to Charleston MUSC in SC to have it replace am not so much worried about the surgery as the recovery after. I have flashbacks of my surgery when I was 7 and there was a fire in the ICU which caused me to stay on the vent an extra day. Am so worried that it will take them forever to take me off the vent and NG tube hate anything around my face. Also I know this sounds Childish but I have this charity event I go to every year, I haven't missed one in 7 years that will be happening 10 days postop and I am trying to make up my mind to sell the tickets or if maybe I'll feel good enough to attend the event. Any words of wisdom will help me make up my mind! I know that everyone is different but what if's keep popping up in my mind! HELP!
