Apologies for not posting sooner, but between the holiday to Florida and work I haven't had the chance. (I'll post all about the hol on small talk asap )
It was amazing
Things have moved along pretty fast with the documentary and surgery.
I go in on Monday the 10th with surgery first thing on the morning of the 11th.
If it is a Valve replacement with the ascending aorta (only) my surgeon will use an ATS.
If it is the valve and the aorta en-block (bentalls) then he will use a St.Jude's
conduit. After extensive debate, I have agreed with, and fully supportt hese choices.
Surprisingly, I am pretty relaxed about it at the minute. I suppose I have finally accepted that it is pretty much out of my hands at this stage, and can only hope and pray that all goes well!!
I have to shoot here, but hopefully will get the chance to post some more details about the documentary etc.
Take care
Kevin
