And not a day too soon, I can usually sleep anywhere and anytime but this time for some reason the most consecutive sleep I got during my 10 day stay was probably about an hour. When I got home yesterday I think I layed down and passed out for about 4 hours straight.
Everthing went about as anticipated except for some dissapointment on my part as far a which valve I recieved. I ended up with a carbomedics carbo-seal 23mm mechanical valve but I really had my heart set on an On-x. Dr. Bavaria explained to my family post op that he would have used an on-x if he thought it would be the best fit but because of the extensive root reconstruction that was need he felt that the carbomedics deal was the best choice and it too is an excellent valve.
Feeling ok today, seems as though each day goes a little different and when it doesn't go well I seem to get a bit depressed. Hopefully as I put some distance on the operation things will be a little more consistant.
Thanks to everyone for their thoughts, prayers and well wishes.
