Dear fellow valvers:
Today marks my fifth valversary! My surgery was just a few days before Valentine’s Day so all of those heart-shaped delicacies have special meaning for me!
When I asked my cardiologist at my last visit if I still needed regular echos, he
replied that I can wait for a few years! I’ve been having them on an annual basis since my surgery.
I still follow this wonderful board on a regular basis. The board has been a source of support and inspiration. So thanks again from the bottom of my mended heart!!
Best wishes to all!
