I just wanted to let you all know that life after surgery is good.

Today (April 2nd) is nine years post surgery for me.

I have gone from excessive uncertainty, to being relatively healthy with my heart and my valve in perfect condition.

Nine years of coumadin therapy and eight years of home testing is behind me and I can honestly say that taking coumadin has not negatively effected my life in any way whatsoever.

I have never for one second regretted having a mechanical valve installed, but I have always been so very happy that I have a mechanical instead of a tissue.

Keep up the hope and move on - Life is good and each day is a gift from our Heavenly Father.
 
Congratulations Hank! I wish our founder many many more wonderful years ticking away!
 
Congratulations Superman! Think maybe the next time you jump from an aircraft, you might use a helmet? :D
 
Congratulations on your nine years Hank!

Sorry you had to go through all of that but this helpful valve replacement site resulted from it all--Thanks :) !!!
 
Hank,congrats on your 9th anniversary !!
Now that you have jumped from a plane, can we get you on a shuttle?
Keep on enjoying yourself and sharing with others, it's much appreciated.
:) :)

Hanky -- I still can't believe you jumped from that plane.....:eek: However; I do know that you have a twin who looks just like that guy who did jump..:D

Congratulations to you guy and muchas gracias for all you've done in the last 9 years. I'm coming up on you this October.. And just for pure sentimentality, here's our first reunion which will be 8 years ago this coming December..
 
Congrats on the 9 years. Thank you for creating such a wonderful site. I am new and I have already learned so much. I only wish I would have found it sooner.
 
Congrats on the anniversary, Im a newbie, still in recovery and seeing folks like you give me much needed inspiration. Also, thank you for this website, I really don't know what I would have done without it. The folks on here have been tremendously helpful with questions and it has given me re-assurance that Im on the right path to regaining my life again.
 
Congratulations, Hank- this site and all the effort and time you have put in to keep it going has been a bonus. Wishing you many more happy, ticking years!
