Happy New Year everyone.

Just wanted to report that one year after my Mechanical aortic valve redo and aortic graph surgery I am doing well. Have gained a few pounds that I shouldn't have but that is what New Year's resolutions are for.;)

Since I opted for the Mechanical valve to try to avoid a 3rd operation the ticking noise is a frequent reminder of the surgery and how lucky I am to be here and functioning pretty good all things considered.

Need to thank everyone here on VR.com again for their support before, during and after the procedure it really helped my family and I manage the uncertainty of what we went through.

Congratulations!

Congratulations!

Nick,
You have given me inspiration. I will be at 6 months on 01-09-09. Doesn't seem like that long ago but I ALMOST forget it ever happened. (the tic tic and people asking about a water leak keep reminding me) I know you will have MANY more VALVERSARIES in the future.
 
That first valversary is a big one, I just had mine 4 months ago (OMG, that long already??) Almost as good, if not better, was the first-year check-up, and the clean bill of health.

Happy valversary and many more.
