Deena Z you have a great attitude, Sue. You have a lot going on between you and your husband. How great that your two children will be there by your side; make sure they get some protein in you! You will get through this successfully. I say this because the odds are so very, very in your favor. Know you will be more exhausted than you could ever imagine when you wake-up after surgery, which is perfectly normal. It takes several days to get considerably less exhausted, but you will get there. Will be thinking of you and will say a prayer for you right after I post this message.

Sue Lambkin @DeenaZ.... Awww, that's the ticket! I am on this website ..to find out..ahead of time from others, like yourself, who have gone through this. Somehow, my nerves are getting calmed by the kind, honest remarks from you and others that have gone before me. This is not something I would wish on anyone, preferring to have the TAVI, less invasive, but Dr's. said no. I can go by my theory...this too shall pass, as it always does. I asked the anaesthesiologist if he was going to hold my hand the whole time, he laughed and said...not a chance, it says here, you said..I got this! Sometimes brevity gets us in deeper. L.O.L. I am ready, need to be at the hospital by 5:45am, they will not need to put me out, I will be out when I get there😇. Thank you, thankyou for your caring note to me, it is heartfelt and appreciated! Just, Bless you Deena. ❤️Sue

Sue Lambkin @DeenaZ....P.S..pic is my son and I, he drove an hour to see me, as soon as he found out I needed open heart surgery. My daughter is staying with me for 1 week, after my nurse is here for 1 week. Can't get any better than that❤️Sue

Sue Lambkin Oh my, thank-you Suzette. I am new on here, only 1 day. I checked your story as well, I hope you are mending and doing well, your story will help me. I have one of the best lady surgeons in our area, she actually trains others, so I am no doubt, in good hands, as we all are. I hope it is normal to be questioning going into open heart surgery. I don't think any of us would ellect to have our breast bone broken and heart removed. Definitely not for the squeamish. I am finding all the stories uplifting and so supportive. My surgery is in 4 days, finding this group was a blessing. Thinking of you, with many thanks. ❤️Sue
