About Me (In My Own Words)
I was diagnosed with aorta stenosis, awhile ago. My open heart surgery is March 20, 2025. I am the main caregiver to my husband who has dementia and congestive heart failure, we are definitely quite a pair. My surgery was canceled last week, and brought forward to next Thursday. All had to be arranged while my husband would be in
a nursing home for 1 month, so I could heal, before having nurses for both of us at home. I told my surgeon, I got this, let's do it. Not necessarily looking forward to the actual operation, thankful I will be out from start to finish.
Both my adult kids are taking the day off work to be at the hospital, since my husband is better at the nursing home.
I just found this website, answered to Bob, from Walmer Kent England. I wanted to mention Bob is an hour away from family I have in Sheerness, Isle of Sheppey, Kent England. I am in Ontario Canada. I had such wonderful feelings reading the stories of people going through heart surgery, that I thought I would join. You believe your before and after stories are a great comfort to people about to go through heart surgery, even being apprehensive. I felt a calmness, and regained my strong positive attitude back. Bless all of you who are waiting and the ones that have already had heart surgery. Thank you for adding me to your page. Sue
