Hey all-
This is my last post before surgery. My check-in time at St. Mary's tomorrow is at 7:00 AM. Surgery will be within a couple of hours from that time.

If you want to know how my surgery goes tomorrow, my hubby will be posting an update on my blog by Saturday morning.

Thanks for all of your good thoughts and prayers. Please keep 'em coming!

See you on the other side of the mountain!

Found this on her blog- Good news!
all is well so far

Good evening, Julia Hart fans...
This is Julia's husband, known as RobbieMax (terrible name), to let everyone know that Julia made it through her surgery with no significant complications. The pulmonary valve looks to be working well, and Julia's recovery is already under way.
It was a tense five hours - from approximately 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. - when we finally met with the surgeon. He seemed happy with the results of the surgery saying that her pressure remained strong and consistent throughout.
We then convened to the ICU to wait for her arrival. She was awake almost immediately and frantically trying to write words in the air with her index finger. As I write this, she is no doubt arguing with the nurse (nonverbally) about removing the breathing tube. She wanted no part of it from the moment she awoke.
She will probably leave the ICU tomorrow sometime. We can't wait to watch movies, play games and give her plenty of lovin'. It's not every day you entrust the life of your wife to a stranger - a very helpless feeling.
Also of note: There are rumors circulating that Julia performed some "Pink Floyd" tunes as she was prepping for the operating room. She can fill you in when she is able.
Tomorrow is the first day of Julia's new life with a fully-functioning heart.
Julia will be posting again soon. Now we must all get some sleep.
Bye -

Amazing!

Amazing!

It is so good to hear that Julia is doing well. I read the blog and it rings so true in my life. My husband, just yesterday, expressed how very helpless he feels. I can only imagine how hard it is on the spouses' and parents of the patients.....so funny about the Pink Floyd tunes.... I seem to remember ( no joke, I actually remember this) 'flashing' the orderly who took me into surgery and telling him how much I liked his hat (the surgical kind, of course).

Wonderful news...Keep the good news coming.

Hugs
:p
 
Wonderful news and we look forward to hearing all about an uneventful recovery for Julia.
 
Hooray!

Hooray!

So glad to hear that the surgery went well. Hoping for a smooth, uneventful recovery.

Love,
