Hi everyone, my name is Derek and I have two days left in the waiting room. Three months ago I found out that I have a bicuspid aortic valve and an aortic aneurysm @ 4.5cm!

I've discovered this amazing community and am grateful to read all of your stories. They are VERY therapeutic! Thank you so much for sharing.
My wife and I are beginning to have emotional flutters about this surgery. We've been married for almost 7 years, and this is the hardest situation we've ever faced. Both of my parents passed away before they reached 60 years old, so genetics is not necessarily on my side. Hopefully my relatively young age will score me a few points.
Any advice from the OHS veterans out there? I've read that waiting is the hardest part.
